The Central Post Office in Utrecht is located at Neude 11. The main space is 30x16x18 meters and spanned by parabolic arches of yellow glazed brick. The floor slabs are faced with black freestone and courses of white marble. The walls above the semi-circular service windows contain decorations which reveal the influence of the Amsterdam School. -- Groenendijk, P. and Vollaard, P. (2000).
