Lonely Planet review for Old US Post Office

Constructed in 1912, this post office and county courthouse served as the first federal building in Miami. The building, with its elaborate doors and carved entryways, was purchased in 1937 to serve as the country’s first savings and loan (and ergo, the core of the industry that would fund Miami’s skyline). Government prosecutors moved into the adjacent Federal Courthouse and Federal Justice Building. Today you can visit the old courthouse to check out Denman Fink’s 1940 mural Law Guides Florida Progress in the main courtroom on the 2nd floor.
