The Old Post Office is a historic former post office building at 120 West Poplar Street in Rogers, Arkansas. It is a Georgian Revival single-story brick building, built in 1917 to a design by James S. Wetmore. The building served as the city's main post office until the late 1940s. It was then adapted to house the Rogers Public Library, which occupied the premises between 1963 and 1994. It is one of the city's best examples of Georgian Revival architecture,[2] and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 as "Rogers Post Office Building".[1]
