Addressed by the congressional demand to halt closures; no public reply reported since the Oct. 20 deadline

The Fields Corner post office will stay open at 218 Adams St. after USPS secured a lease extension announced Oct. 23, three days before the branch was to shut. The extension runs through April 27, 2027, and the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Services says the city hopes to secure a long-term lease. City Councillor John FitzGerald credited Senator Ed Markey's office and the developer and attorney at the O'Hearn Building with bringing the parties together.
