On April 29th, 2019, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Faction of the Fooling Fish (short story)|The Faction of the Fooling Fish]]'') work was set to begin on the construction of the Department's largest warehouse yet, which would be “the biggest one yet, six stories tall and with twelve rooms on each floor”. They had earmarked a location on the [[Mainland Cloud]] that was currently occupied by the [[Cupid Post Office]]'s officially-disused West Wing, obtaining permission from the [[Department of Permits]] to raze it. However, work was delayed by the [[Department of Architecture]]'s blueprints failing to arrive, much to the ire of [[Head Construction Cupid]] [[Foreman-964]]. This was actually because [[Philatel-426]], head of the [[Department of Postal Services]], had discovered their plans and intercepted the mailbag containing the blueprints, as he was secretly using the West Wing to store his private stamp collection. | On April 29th, 2019, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Faction of the Fooling Fish (short story)|The Faction of the Fooling Fish]]'') work was set to begin on the construction of the Department's largest warehouse yet, which would be “the biggest one yet, six stories tall and with twelve rooms on each floor”.

This was ultimately discovered by the [[Blue Feather]], who blackmailed Philatel into letting them take over the West Wing as their new HQ. In turn, the Department of Construction were offered the Blue Feather's old, much less comfortable HQ to demolish and build over, which suited them, as they found the location even better.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[Acquaintanceship-982 and the Missing Mail Mystery (short story)|Acquaintanceship-982 and the Missing Mail Mystery]]'') This truce did not last long, however, with Philatel commenting negatively on a later warehouse plan, which made the headlines of Issue 1020 of ''[[The Cupid Courier]]''. This new mega-warehouse was projected to contain 32 rooms, each as large as a regular warehouse.

[[Foreman-964]] later evidenced that he still coveted the Post Office's location to build yet another warehouse. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Rifts Crisis Officially Over! (short story)|Rifts Crisis Officially Over!]]'') | |||
