MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - The former Kmart on West Lake Street in south Minneapolis is becoming the temporary home for two post office locations that were destroyed in the May riots, according to the U.S. Postal Service.
The location at 10 W. Lake Street, Suite 102 will serve the customers from the former Minnehaha and Lake Street post office locations. All P.O. boxes from those former locations will be on site starting Nov. 16. Customers are asked to see the window clerk and bring their ID to get their keys.
