The Brook Road post office has been the main mail hub for Richmond for years now, but it looks like that will be changing in the near future as the U.S. Postal Service prepares to relocate its Richmond distribution center to eastern Henrico County. The Times-Dispatch has some details:
The U.S. Postal Service has bought 61 acres off Technology Boulevard in eastern Henrico County for a major distribution center…
…The deal is considered a blow to Richmond because the Brook Road office is the main distribution point for this area. In compensation, the Postal Service has agreed to upgrade some of the post offices in Richmond, Thompson said. The Brook Road office will remain open but in a limited capacity, he said.
The land purchase is near Interstates 64 and 295, providing easier highway access than the main office in Richmond.
