In 1933, the Works Progress Administration, which was renamed to the Work Project Administration in 1939, constructed the Main Post Office for the city of San José, California after it was designed by Ralph Wycoff.
After the establishment of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal, the Main Post Office was one of multiple buildings constructed by the Work Project Administration, while the city of San José endured through the Great Depression.
Author’s Note:
