The U.S.P.S. has been essential in the nation’s development, but faces challenges today due to cultural, social, and technological changes. These shifts have also driven wasteful consumer habits, with many items falling into landfills due to inefficient reverse logistics. The post is an intermediary between the consumer and retailer becoming a potential vehicle in repurposing unwanted items. This adaptive reuse proposal for the South Adams post in Ypsilanti, Michigan focuses on confronting overconsumption by visually and directly engaging the community through facilitating processes of paper making and mailing (i.e. composting, growing, trading, pneumatic tube transporting).
