United States Post Office-Punxsutawney This is NOT a photograph of the current Post Office, it is the Weather Museum. The Post office is located about a mile away from this building and is a modern structure occupying several acres. The Post Office relocated to the new site a number of years ago. Pictured is the old Post Office which is an historic building as described in the rest of this page. The old post office building is located in Punxsutawney, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. It was designed by the Office of the Supervising Architect under James Knox Taylor and built between 1912 and 1914. It is a two-story brick building with a raised basement in the Neo Classical Revival style. It features a full Ionic order octastyle limestone portico with a coffered ceiling and single-step parapet gable. It housed the post office until 1998.
