New England post office and treasury building needs funding
Senator Hoar pushes a $250000 bill to overhaul Boston’s Post Office and Sub Treasury Building. The piece argues the four story complex, occupied since 1873, suffers from a leaking copper roof, crowded quarters, poor heating, outdated electrical and plumbing, and inadequate storage and safety facilities. It calls for extensive renovations, proposing a $200000 to $250000 appropriation to modernize and centralize operations for New England federal services.
