Original architectural features anchor the guest experience. Salvaged teller gates become metalwork behind the host desk. The material palette balances preservation with warmth, introducing elements that complement historic architecture while creating comfortable dining environments. 

Two integrated patios extend hospitality beyond the building. The north patio protects an existing heritage tree. The south patio stands structurally independent from the historic building — allowing future reversal if needed. 

Environmental graphics tell Westerville's prohibition story. From Anti-Saloon League headquarters to craft distilling community. These elements create layered experience connecting guests to the building's history. 

The transformed post office became a beloved community gathering place. It strengthens Westerville's identity while bridging temperance past with vibrant present. The project drives continued Uptown revitalization, bringing foot traffic and economic activity while preserving an architectural landmark.
