US Post Office
This small brickface post office serves the rural, mixed-used area of Moodus in the town of East Haddam. It became notorious when a robbery was featured in an Oct. 17, 1901, New York Times brief detailing how vandals wrapped a blanket around the safe as a silencer, destroyed the combination lock with tools pilfered from a local blacksmith's shop and blew the door off with nitroglycerine, making off with $4,000 in stamps and $120 in cash.
