Residents in Chinatown are dismayed over the planned closure of a post office that has served the Los Angeles community for decades.
Peter Kwong opened the neighborhood post office just north of downtown Los Angeles about 20 years ago. The location is what’s known as a Contract Postal Unit (CPU), which are contracted by the U.S. Postal Service to serve communities and offer postal products and services.
The small post office on Hill Street has done that and more over the past two decades, becoming a place that feels like family to residents who fear multiple language barriers if they’re forced to visit another post office.
