Sherri and Gary were surprised when we saw that this building was on the local historical registry. We had eaten here on occasion when we were still working, about a block away, knowing it as the Galleria-a collection of restaurants. Nice to know that this building is being used after living out its live as a Post Office.

This was the first postal substation in Fresno. The Neo-Art Deco Moderne details on the interior of the building were added when it was adapted for use as commercial space.
