NEW YORK CITY — The United States Postal Service has signed an 8,440-square-foot lease at 333 E.14th St. in Manhattan. The branch inked the 10-year sublease for the space, which is located at the base of a residential building on 14th Street and First Avenue. The post office will occupy 6,940 square feet on the ground floor and 1,500 square feet of basement. The post office is relocating from a bigger space at 432 E. 14th St. The Feil Organization holds a long-term ground lease for the retail space. Duane Reade previously occupied the space, which offers 100 feet of frontage on 14th Street. The drugstore chain then moved to a larger location at nearby 245 First Ave. in January. The new post office branch is currently under construction and is slated for completion in the second quarter of 2014.
