Sanibel Post Office

In 1896 the Sanibel Post Office was located on the porch of postmaster Will Reed's house. After the house was destroyed by a hurricane, Mr. Reed collected enough storm debris from three buildings at Reed's Landing to construct this post office building and a one-story home. This post office was in operation until 1943 and Mr. Reed served as postmaster until 1940. This building was located on San Carlos Bay about one mile west from the causeway.
