    Went here today to get our little one’s passport photo taken and Irene was so nice and quick. She was very patient with taking our babies photo and explained the entire process thoroughly. The appt was super quick and efficient! Would recommend coming to this location for passport applications!

    I went today to get my passport and Irene was very kind and patient; she helped me with everything. The office is always very clean and organized, and the staff is very friendly. I have another office closer by, but I always prefer to go to this one!

    Ongoing issues: 1. Still leaving mailed letters outside of their boxes because they’re too lazy to look for the correct box. 2. They leave everyone’s mail, piled on top of boxes. Tenants have to search through a pile of letters daily to see if they received anything. I almost missed an important piece of mail. It wasn’t inside my box, of course. It was in a pile on the opposite side of the wall. 3. Sometimes mail boxes are left wide open for anyone to reach in. Like in the picture below.
