The Crossett Post Office is a historic former post office and library building at 125 Main Street in Crossett, Arkansas. The single story Art Deco building was built in 1940 as a Works Progress Administration project, and served as the town's post office until 1968. In that year the federal government sold the building to the town for $1, and it was converted for use as a public library. It served in that role until 2002, when the library relocated to new quarters. [2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. [1]
