The lobby is organized and well-kept, and there are several designs of stamps to choose from at the counter (I picked the snow globes in honor of Christmas!). Vanity was the employee working when I was there, and she was fantastic. She was very kind and personable to everyone who came through, and she was very understanding to the customers having trouble. I would definitely pick the McCordsville Post Office over any other shipping company in the city!

I purchases a computer monitor worth $100 on ebay. The seller shipped it on Jan 24 2004, provided a…read moretracking number. Today is Feb 12, and the tracking shows that it's still in-transit. It had at one point reached my hometown then it was routed back to the Indianapolis hub where it's stranded until today. I submitted an inquiry, and received an email suggesting that I submit a claim for it. Unfortunately they wanted me to provide proof of insurance, shipping documents, etc... all those are difficult to get from the ebay seller. I find the USPS completely incompetent for losing my package and now I'm having to jump through hoops to submit the claim. I will ship UPS or Fedex next time.

As crazy as it seems to review a post office, this branch deserves to be recognized! The woman…read moreworking, Olivia, went above and beyond to help me get my packages together. I feel like post offices don't have the best reputation for service, but this one breaks all stereotypes. Olivia helped me wrap up/tape up the poor job I did, explained all the differences in mailing options, and was overall extremely pleasant. This post office has a huge parking lot, was extremely clean, and the line moved at a quick pace. I would go out of my way to go back to this branch for any and all of my mail needs!

There is a front window to talk to the clerk for needed postal items, and many rental boxes in about 4 different sizes inside with 24/7 access. This is a cool old building with plenty of parking in the large lot or on the street. This is a small farming type town, so they are not very busy here, so it can be quick in and out if you're shipping packages. This is the 46161 zip code.

I had heard of Fletcher Place food pantry, but I didn't realize how much this location offers. Check it out: 1. Thrift store. People can come and shop around the store to score clothes, shoes, and household items for free. All clothes have been donated from the community and are sorted in the basement by volunteers. Clothing in the store is nice and any stained clothing is given to Salvation Army. Anything the Salvation Army can't use is given to a company in Canada that turns them into rags. Nothing is wasted and the thrift store staff says that their goal is for people to leave feeling better about themselves. That's why the store is so clean, organized, and friendly. 2. Preschool. There are two preschool classrooms for kids. Not only do they receive education, but teachers will pick out clothing from the thrift store for the children if they are not adequately dressed. Children then get to keep the clothes. There is also a large library that allows students to choose books from (to keep) each week. 3. Kitchen. The top floor has a large multi-purpose room that is often used for meals. Churches come in every day and donate food and cooking ability. No one is ever turned down from receiving food. An average of 120 people are fed every meal. The facility is super nice and always clean- but only with the help of volunteers. The building is also very secure and they always have plenty for volunteers to do. They also have an e-mail newsletter they send out about volunteer opportunities. *There is a big Christmas event in which you take families "shopping" throughout the building to get all necessities and Christmas presents. Very cool. They're looking for help* Check this place out if you've never been. They're doing great things!

Bring your clothes, blankets, shoes here, where they will be given away to people that really really need them. They also operate a free food pantry so you can bring food items for needy families.

My wife is a Girl Scout troop leader and they often come here to volunteer, sorting food items and helping to sort and display other donations.

The marker indicated that in 1915, James Allison helped establish Indianapolis Speedway Team Company and built a machine shop to improve race cars. During WWI, the shop produced parts for Liberty Aircraft. In 1921, the facility was renamed Allison Engineering Company. In 1929, General Motors bought the facility and dedicated efforts to building aircraft engines, including the V-1710 fighter plane engines for WWII. They employed 23,000 workers.
