St. Helena Post Office










Lewis Simon was the architect on this remarkably intact Post office building from 1940 in St. Helena. This charming town has managed to be respectful of most of its architecural heritage. Unlike many towns that have decimated their historic downtown area, like Palm Springs to name but one, St. Helena seems to be thriving. I can't help but wonder if there is a lesson to be learned here.....
I'll post more pix of the St. Helena trip soon...
