A grey faΓ§ade panel surrounded by red brick. It bears two features: the relief of a single-propeller plane in the same grey stone and a large three-pane window with a dirty white wooden frame. Through the window, on the dark ceiling of the old post office is seen a dingy yellow rectangular fluorescent light fixture.
