Just last week, I was informed of a disabled post office patron who required the assistance of a Good Samaritan to successfully mail letters, due to the lack of handicapped parking at 6900. Handicapped parking in a nearby garage is simply no substitute for truly functional spaces near the front door of the post office. Some two decades after the Americans with Disabilities Act, all citizens have a right to expect equal access to public facilities.
The United States Postal Service has yet to publicly announce a location for a second Bethesda post office it plans to open. But let's go ahead and check out the progress of construction crews at the much-missed former post office site:

When the Phoenix @ Clarendon condo was built in Arlington a few years ago, they incorporated a post office into the project.
I wonder why that wasn't done here? Could have been a win-win.
Regarding a new post office, I heard they could find no suitable locations at all. This was from their real estate person. Is that the case? What happens then?
