Early Twentieth Century

A weathered brick United States Post Office stands resolute along East 1st Street in Cle Elum, Washington, its classic early 20th-century facade crowned with traditional red brick and cream-colored stone trim. The overcast Pacific Northwest sky casts even light across the building's seven tall windows, while the American flag hangs quietly beside the entrance. Stone wainscoting and large storefront windows reveal the building's dual role as both federal facility and community anchor, set against the backdrop of the Cascade Mountains' forested hills. — ISO 200 · 43mm · f/8 · 1/60
