“The Mankato Post Office and the Federal Office building are nodes in Mankato.  When my group too   the tour, this area was very busy.

It was hard enough just to get a picture of these buildings because of the heavy traffic in this area.  The Mankato Post Office and the Federal Office building are constructed of limestone.  These buildings are very inviting to the public from the outside because of the presence of many windows and the contrasting light and dark brown colors of the buildings.  Overall, Mankato would be a nice place to live because of the busy urban center and the beautiful scenery that the city has to offer.”
