The main U.S. Post Office in New Rochelle, located at 255 North Avenue in Westchester County, New York, is a Moderne structure that exemplifies the federal investment in civic architecture during the Depression era. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 as part of a Multiple Property Submission, it is one of 94 post offices in New York State to receive artistic embellishment—either mural or sculpture—through the New Deal art program. Positioned at the intersection of North Avenue and Huguenot Street (US 1/the Boston Post Road South), the facility continues to serve the city's 10801, 10803, and 10805 ZIP Codes, covering portions of New Rochelle, Pelham, and Pelham Manor.
