[RP TownTalk] [HOPE_in_Hyattsville] speaking of budget cuts & local impact.... USPS

[Alan K. Thompson]

Melissa,

If you read the original post from HOPE, the post office that they said
might be closing is the one on Route 1, not the Kenilworth Avenue post
office.

In addition, I attended the Purple Line briefing on Saturday morning, and
the ramp for the Purple Line will start south of where the Post Office is.
 There are many businesses that will be affected on Kenilworth, but the post
office is not one of them.
