Formerly the only Post Office in Pasadena, it is now a branch, located on the northwest corner of Garfield Avenue and Colorado Blvd. The main building was built in 1913 and designed by Oscar Wenderoth. Marston and Maybury designed the addition, which was built in 1938. In early 2012, the building was renamed "First Lieutenant Oliver Goodall Post Office Building," in honor of an Altadena resident and Tuskegee Airman. Goodall lived in Altadena from 1961 until his death in November 2010. Exterior view of the original Italian Renaissance Post Office in Pasadena, with addition behind it.
