Hyde Park Post Office

Built of fieldstone in the Dutch Colonel Revival style, the building was completed in 1941. Franklin Roosevelt influenced this design of his home town post office as well as several others in Duchess County, New York.

 

The lobby contains several paintings by Olin Dows depicting the local history of the area.
