The Mystic Post Office is located at 23 East Main Street, on the Stonington side of Mystic. It is a colonial revival-style building erected in 1925 and later expanded an additional two bays on the left side of the front façade.

Would the original Palladian windows on this building been truncated by bricks?
Anne,
Historic photos of the building (like https://www.mystichistory.org/collectionsexhibit/vex1/8F706F75-E676-4E5E-A791-452456544200.htm) indicate the windows were always like that.
That’s interesting Dan. It looks like an adaptation.
Here’s a nice BBC article on Palladian – inspired architecture, which shows older examples of truncated window arches in Europe.
