LOCATION DETAILS
The Old Post Office building, 433 West Van Buren Street, which served as the ‘Gotham’ bank robbed by the Joker (Heath Ledger) at the opening of Christopher Nolan’s epic. The Old Post Office Building in Chicago is a historic architectural landmark. Designed by Graham, Anderson, Probst & White in 1921, it was once the largest post office in the world. With its Beaux-Arts style, intricate detailing, and grandeur, the building served as a bustling hub of mail distribution for decades. After closing its doors in 1997, the Old Post Office underwent extensive restoration to preserve its architectural integrity. In 2016, it was acquired by a development firm and transformed into a vibrant mixed-use complex.
