The First Post Office

The first post office was established on May 16, 1945 at 4419 72nd Avenue, the home of Edward and Ann McEntee. The back wall of their kitchen was converted into a walk-up window where postal business could be conducted. Mrs. McEntee provided the much needed service to the Town.

Four years later the post office moved to Oliver's Store where it remained until the Landover Hills Shopping Center was expanded and could provide space for a full scale post office. This building was used until 1970 when the new Landover Hills Post Office went into operation at 7400 Buchanan Street.
