United States Post Office (Lihue, Hawaii)

The Lihue Post Office in Lihue, Hawaii, was built in 1939. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as U.S. Post Office-Lihue in 1989.

The Mission Revival style architecture of the building is an accommodation to local citizens who did not want the standard neo-classical design of many mainland U.S. post offices.
