"Designed by the same Italian architect, Adamo Boari, who did Bellas Artes across the street, the central post office is a wild mix of architectural styles—Spanish Rococo, Venetian, Gothic Revival, Moorish, Neoclassical, Baroque, and Art Deco elements are all present here. The space has been in operation as a city post office since 1907. Inside, the translucent variety of stone called "chiluca"—used throughout the interior and staircase—is particularly appealing." - Scarlett Lindeman
