The United States Post Office–Weymouth Landing, located at 103 Washington Street in Weymouth, Massachusetts, is a single-story Colonial Revival granite structure completed in 1941. Designed by architect Louis A. Simon, the building exemplifies post office design conventions of the 1930s and 1940s. Its five-bay facade features three projecting bays that frame the entrance, while a side-gable roof topped with a wooden cornice and louvered belfry crowns the composition. The building is locally notable for its rare construction in granite, distinguishing it within the regional architectural landscape. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986, it represents an important example of early twentieth-century federal civic architecture in New England.
