Greenpoint post office to be renamed in honor of Assembly icon Joe Lentol

He’s a living legend! 

Former Assemblymember Joseph Lentol’s name will likely be further immortalized in his former Greenpoint stomping ground, as the Meserole Avenue Post Office may soon bear the 78-year-old’s name. 

The renaming came after the passage of a bill in the US House of Representatives, which was authored by local Rep. Carolyn Maloney. The measure still needs the approval of the Senate, which it will likely get.
