==Description and history==
The main Sanford post office is located at the northeast corner of School and Mousam Streets, two blocks southeast of the city center. It is a tall single story brick building, with its primary entrance facing School Street and a secondary entrance on Mousam. A lower single-story addition is connected to the building at its eastern end, which has a separate entrance. The main block is red brick, laid in Flemish bond, with granite and marble trim elements. The main entrance is sheltered by a marble portico supported by marble columns. Three bays at the center of the facade project slightly, and are topped by a gabled pediment. Its corners are quoined, as are the main corners. The secondary entrance also has a marble surround, with pilasters instead of columns. The interior lobby fixtures and furnishings are all original.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for US Post Office-Sanford Maine )〕
The building was constructed in 1932, to a design by John P. Thomas of Portland. The design work was funded by a federal Depression-era program intended to provide employment for regional architects. In 1965 the building was enlarged to include other federal offices.〔
