    Ever since that lady doesn't work here anymore, I love coming in here! Everybody is extremely pleasant now! Yay!

    Customer service

    This post office is a mess. I've been here 4 times and there's never a supervisor. There's a plus sized black woman with glasses and she is HORRIBLE. I requested a supervisor and she laughed in my face and said "we have no supervisor".

    Yes, it is between William and Wall but that's not 1 Hanover Square.

    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.

    The majestic main hall of the James A Farley customer post office that has been Manhattan's main…read morepost office, formerly with access 24 hours a day with Automated Postal and window service 7 days a week, has had a real decline in services. As someone who has regularly used this post office for years given its easy availability, including with a P.O. Box there, it amazes me what has developed, especially since the building now also includes Penn Station's Moynihan Hall. Yes, they do have window service every day, but 98% of the time they're slow as molasses long lines because less than optimal staffing levels. Hey, USPS, this is the city that never sleeps, yet P.O. Boxes and self-serve Automatic Centers are now closed off to the public at night!!! Why? (Note - This is despite the faster than inflation, year-after-year increase in this location's P.O. Box rental rates.) Why is the only ADA access, as far as I could find it, on the almost the. complete opposite side of the building towards 9th Avenue inside Moynihan Hall?

    Canal Street Post Office is a gem, it's the embodiment of change in the neighborhood and the world…read moreat large. Most noticeably the racial mix of the personel from white and black to black and Asian, sometimes the transition appeared to be bumpy. one thing remains consistent, it's always a surprise not to get yelled at. Recently I went to pick up the mail and watched this young blackman, a custodian and clearly resentful at the job, acting extremely aggressively bordering violent towards one of his Chinese colleagues behind the window, in front of the customers. It was quite alarming. Having read about the uncertain fate of this post office, this adds more feeling of doom and chaos to the possible end of an era.

I got another notification yesterday and came back yesterday and today. Not in my box. I get the card sent out from weeks ago which has now been voided (only after going to the window and insisting that I received a notification that I got mail). So maybe I'll receive the card (which I sent away for in December and this is the 5th time they sent it out) or maybe never. At least one of the times the card was intercepted (by postal workers?) and charges were run up. So maybe I'll get the card or maybe my time will continue to be wasted. I filed a fraud report on the USPS website. No update on an investigation. At this point, is it just a racket??
