A closer view of the simple façade of the
Bronx General Post Office,
1934-37 by the Public Works Administration project,
adorned with two limestone sculptures: Noah by Charles Rudy
and The Letter by Henry Kreis of the US Treasury Department's
Section of Painting and Sculpture (one of the lesser-known New Deal
agencies).
