  1. Interesting that it is referred to as battery park City post office when it isn’t located in battery park city.

  2. When is Battery Park City gonna get its own post office. It’s a long walk to the nearest one (Church Street Post Office.)

    How ’bout one in TriBeCa, too?

  3. I say you build over the West Side Highway and connect Pier 40 with St John’s Terminal and make it one big clusterfuck of commerce and throw in a small school and call it the Smithers Center for Corruption and Childcare.
