1910, James Knox Taylor, Supervising Architect of the U.S. Treasury; 1929 expanded; 2005 renovated. 2920 Lee St.

The former post office is a classical design with striking material contrasts of dark red brick walls and cream-colored terra-cotta for details. Three central arches outline the entrance and flanking windows. In 1942, Greenville native Audie Murphy enlisted here and subsequently became a World War II hero. In 2005 the building was renovated, including its interior finishes, by the Greenville Rotary Post Office Foundation as a meeting place for clubs and organizations.
