The Basement Reno — Local services in Reno

A historic building that was a Post Office built in the 1930s with amazing art deco and some original post boxes.

So cool. If you are into architecture or history this is the building for you to check out. So glad that this building was repurposed into an eclectic space.

And if you continue to venture around, you'll realize that they renovated the old Post Office and filled it with (what appears to be) local businesses. From clothing, to soaps, to crystals, and a barber; just to name a few. So enjoy yourself if you can stop by.
