About the United States Post Office–Lenox Hill Station
The Lenox Hill Station post office stands at 217 East 70th Street, midway between Second Avenue and Third Avenue, on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Eric Kebbon designed the brick building in the Colonial Revival style, and it was constructed in 1935. It ranks among the finest Colonial Revival post offices in New York State. In 1989 it joined the National Register of Historic Places, together with many other post offices across the state.
The building has two sections, both three stories high. Rusticated limestone covers the first story, which sits on a granite foundation; the upper stories are brick in Flemish bond, trimmed with limestone. The main section is five bays wide, and its central pavilion, three bays wide, projects forward under a gable and a stone pediment. A three-bay wing to the east has a segmental-arched garage. Unlike many Colonial Revival post offices, it has two entrances at the sides of the pavilion instead of one in the middle.
Of the 12 post offices put up in Manhattan in the mid-1930s as federal relief during the Great Depression, Lenox Hill was one. A 1930 amendment to the Public Buildings Act let the Treasury Department's Supervising Architect hire outside architects, to give work to unemployed architects. Kebbon, whose earlier work included the AT&T building on Broadway at Fulton Street, was retained for five Manhattan post offices. He later served the city as its school-system architect and designed over a hundred school buildings.
