Plymouth Post Office Looks to Remain Downtown

The U.S.P.S. has selected the location at 885 Penniman as a site for a downsized post office in downtown Plymouth.

The vacant and former convenience store location of 885 Penniman has been selected for the new downsized United States Post Office in Plymouth.

The location is a few doors away from the current post office and will require work before being reopened, according to a report from the Observer & Eccentric. There is also still no lease or design in place.

According to the report, however, the move is a good sign that the U.S. Postal Service is “committed to staying downtown.”

The Plymouth City Commission also indicated that month that it supported efforts to keep the United States Postal Service's Plymouth branch location centrally located within city limits, according to a previous report.
