“Dear PoPville,
Has anyone been having mail issues recently? We haven’t received mail in about a week (predictive mail emails say we are missing at least 6 pieces of mail) and then on Sunday, I saw these USPS trucks making what looked like amazon deliveries with no license plates on the trucks. Very odd…”
A reader reported Friday afternoon:
“Walled to the 23rd street location, closed for „system issues” and the sign said to go to m street. walked to m street, closed without a sign, walked to farragut and now there’s a sign they reopen at 3:15. dozens of people waiting on a friday afternoon, is there a summer staffing issue at usps locally or nationwide?”
Anyone still having issues?
“Dear PoPville,
Could you maybe run a happy thing about post offices? People can send in their favorites?
My favorite is Mt. Rainer, just north of Eastern Ave on RHI. The people who work there are great and you can schedule your passport renewals there. They take photos too! Parking right out front and there is hardly ever a line. Maybe I shouldn’t share…”

Thanks to Charlie for sending the update on the new post office:
“Looks like a new post office going into the old Amsterdam falafel at 14th and T” (more…)
I actually thought this was pretty cool: (more…)

Thanks to Noa for sending:
“You know the old Amsterdam falafel on 14th? A guy looking to be doing construction work was walking in and I asked him what’s coming there and he said a “post office like next month” (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Saturday, what’s Saturday? And what’s Temple Heights while we’re at it? (I know you already covered the latter question!).” (more…)
What the what?!!? Thanks to Molly for sending on Saturday:
“Anyone else just get their absentee ballot in the mail?”

“Dear PoPville,
Well, USPS has opened the newly located post office in Dupont on Conn Ave, BUT it’s still called “Temple Heights,” just like at its former location, which isn’t an actual neighborhood in DC. Google that and you’ll see your own article. Why it’s not called Dupont Circle is laughable. (more…)
1635 Connecticut Ave, NW
Thanks to Nick for sending the update: “Dupont Circle post office signage.”
In my day this space was previously home to a Drybar, a Custom Fuel Pizza and a Potbelly.
This post office will replace the recently closed, nearby, Temple Heights location. What a ride.
Stay tuned for a post office opening date.
