This U.S. Post Office, located at 421 Jenks Avenue in historic downtown Panama City, was dedicated in April 1938 with U.S. Postmaster James A. Farley in attendance. The second floor housed other government offices including Customs and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It is significant as a Works Progress Administration (WPA) building, and like the Ritz Theatre (now the Martin Theatre) of the previous year, was built in the Art Deco style. #Art_Deco #Historic #Jason_Combs #Jenks_Avenue #Panama_City #Post_Office #Works_Progress_Administration #WPA
