    Website USPS says self service kiosk is open it this location on Sundays until 5pm. They are not.

    Entrance to 115 East 34th Street Post Office. WATCH YOUR STEP!!!
    Reva R.

    Today, I was in this location at around 3:50pm -4:10pm--ish. I wanted to send a Certified Letter with signature proof of receipt. I found the entire staff willing to be helpful, HOWEVER, the problem with this location is the design. It is small, but there is a square column at center & it blocks views of staff and customers . There were two waiting lines, with NO SIGNAGE AT ALL TO INDICATE THE PURPOSE--What is EACH LINE FOR??? so You don't know which line to stand on. Apparently, the PURPOSE CHANGES DAILY, so no one can tell you what each line is for. There needs to be some simple organization so that the staff and customers can have a good, helpful experience . I would think it is equally frustrating for staff and customers. Some simple ORGANIZATION SHOULD HELP TO IMPROVE WORKING CONDITIONS AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. This is do-able. I hope this may be of help. See photo of Entrance

    This used to be my go to Post Office when it was once 24hrs, back in the day…read more This is still a solid choice when in need of a Post Office that has flexible, extended hours. During my visit on a Saturday afternoon, my wait was 45 minutes. Which was fine, had plenty to occupy my time. Despite paying higher price's for shipping packages. My package which was going local to Queen's took over 2 weeks to arrive. If I am mailing off packages to the Southern part of the Country, it takes a week or so. The service left a lot to be desired, but that did not stop me from being thrilled to have my packages mailed out. The architecture of this majestic post office is on another level. The Corinthian colonnades, and the Imperial Coat of Arms of Prussia. This specific design is carved into a decorative, hexagonal ceiling panel, which is commonly found in historic government buildings, palaces, or university halls constructed during the Prussian era or German Empire.

    Procrastination usually doesn't win out, but thank goodness for a USPS office open until 7pm on…read moreSundays, even during the holiday season! In fact, the only station in the city open on Sundays and a lifesaver for those who started writing holiday cards on the Friday before Christmas. Peering into the "envelopes" mail slot, thousands of pieces of mail were visibly overflowing the sacks, requiring some gingerly wedging of my small booklet-worth of correspondence in between others. Fingers crossed all made it out ok! Shoutout to one of two staff working the two open counters at 5pm on Sunday December 21, you were friendly, prompt and helpful and put your best foot forward for terrific customer service. Only 2 counters were open and the line was about a dozen people long, steadily moving. For service--a solid 5 stars. Facilities are as expected a bit on the older side, being built in 1912 as part of the original Penn Station complex, though the modern conveniences of tap-to-pay technology and self-service weigh/postage stations are available. Waiting in line, the details on the ceiling caught my attention. Maybe because the darker evening outside accentuated the brighter interior, the simultaneously ornamental, scrolling flourishes fitted in repeating geometric patterns stood out in ways I hadn't noticed before. Come to find after some googling the ceiling is decorated with the country seals of 11 countries including the US, the countries part of the universal postal union at the time of construction, an administrative body now under the purview of the United Nations that handles international shipping policies. Not very fun facts: designated a national historic landmark in 1973 and re-named after James Farley, 53rd U.S. Postmaster General in 1982. Previously generically named the General Post Office. Slightly more fun fact: atop the facade along 8th Avenue the inscription reads, "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." Some may confuse this to be the creed of the U.S. Postal Service, but it's actually not. Rather, it's tied to the tribute that building architect William Mitchell Kendall paid to major historical figures credited with postal advancements. This is an excerpt out of Herodotus's 'Histories', which described the messenger system established in Persia by Cyrus the Great.

Its very…read moreunderstaffed (thanks NYC/US Gov cut first done ~1994, then 2017 and now 2025), like nurses being cut in hospitals by over 60% since the early 1990s the public pays for it in having a slower service. If one took your job time, lets say of 7 hrs. a day and told you do it in 2 hrs., you'd be upset (those are how the last 26 yrs of job cuts feel to public servants]. Now add that you have to interact with people (the general public) that mean well, but might not understand the rules of sending packages, insured vs not , sign for package vs. not and long lines develope and do that over and over hundreds of times a day. Yes one gets paid to do a job not be abused or disrespected. i saw the postal worker call for a handicapped person to go ahead of the line [i was 2nd in line 5 after me] and a couple of those on line became upset (karens/karons [male]). Do they not understand what conscience is, or what doing things correctly [takes time] i? So if you go here more than not the line will have ~7 people and there is one if lucky two postal windows open, do the math and understand the wait.

I've passed…read morethis spot several times on my way to and from the office, however I try to avoid going to the post office as much as possible so I have rarely been inside. Nevertheless, there are times where I need to visit one, and in those cases this is super convenient. For me, the biggest plus this post office has going for it is their operating hours. They're open from 7:30am to 7pm Monday to Saturday which is way longer than a typical branch. This makes it easy if you need to visit before or after work. This is also a huge location - tons of PO boxes and multiple self-serve kiosk stands in case you don't need to wait on the line for your service. Speaking of the line, it's there - as per usual. Despite having multiple tellers and a long queue area, I've only seen two to three people working them - even at peak times. As such, there's always a line - so just be prepared. Overall, this US Post Office is fine. I will use the self-serve kiosks as much as possible, and their expanded operating hours will make me a repeat patron.

    It's clear that this used to be a big, humming institution in Midtown. Unfortunately, it seems like…read morea shell of what it once was. Two or three windows open out of 20-something.
