Plans to move Aurora post office on hold

A plan to move the Aurora post office to the Heary Building is on hold as village officials determine the next step without Wells College.

The U.S. Postal Service has planned for more than three years to move out of a village-owned building at 373 Main St. and into its historic home next door.

The Heary Building, 371 Main St., is owned by the Aurora Foundation, a partnership of the college and alumna Pleasant Rowland. However, the college stated in a recent letter to the postal service it would look at other tenants for the Heary Building space, USPS spokeswoman Maureen Marion said Wednesday.
