Park Falls Post Office

National Register of Historic Places | North 1st Street, Downtown, Park Falls

The Park Falls Federal Building was constructed in 1936, and housed the post office in addition to offices for the newly-designated Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, the Civilian Conservation Corps, and other smaller federal agencies. A 1930′s Works Projects Administration (WPA) mural for the lobby of the post office was painted by Madison artist John Watrous. Visitors can still enjoy the unusual mural depicting a river fight among river drivers on the Flambeau River.
