The former McGehee Post Office building is a historic post office facility at 201 North Second Street in McGehee, Arkansas. The single story masonry building was designed by Louis A. Simon, the Supervising Architect for the United States Treasury Department, and built in 1937. A Colonial Revival building, it features a cupola with round-arch louvered vents, and a front entry that is flanked by Doric columns supporting a cornice with a golden eagle. The building served as a post office until 1999, after which it was purchased by the McGehee Industrial Foundation.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
