History
Servicing the working-class stevedores and security detail operating in Neptune's Bounty, Jet-Postal Substation II was in charge of the posting, receipt, sorting, handling, and delivery of mail to the fisheries and other businesses. Though a small part of the Jet Postal network, the substation served an important duty to the citizens of Rapture.

The office is composed of a customer area where citizens could attend to their needs with a postal worker or rent out one of twenty lockers. In addition to the shelves, couches, and writing desks, a Circus of Values machine is set up in this area for customer use. Beyond here is the sorting area where employees worked at sorting and distributing incoming mail or sending outgoing mail from eight pnuemo tubes. In addition to the pnuemo tubes, there are also several shelves for storing citizens' mail until it has been picked up.

Bioshock
Jack needs to find and photograph three Spider Splicers with the Research Camera before Peach Wilkins will allow him entry into Fontaine Fisheries. After recovering the camera from the Warfmaster's Office, Jack heads to Jet-Postal Substation II. The subtation has fallen into disuse since the Civil War. Most of the mail has been sbsconded with and only a few items remain on the sorting shelves. More gruesome, three corpses have been strung up from the ceiling in the front area of the substation.

Upon entering, a female Spider Splicer dangling from the ceiling will retreat to the bak of the room while two Leadhead Splicers charge out. Heading straight into the backmost area proves to be a trap as a strateically posted Security Camera will set off an alarm unless quick action is taken. Meanwhile, the Spider Splicer will taunt the player, swoop down, and begin her assault. After dealing with the Spider Splicer, another Leadhead will appear in the front part of the substation. Andrew Ryan's Audio Diary "Death Penalty in Rapture" is located on one of the wriing desks in the front area of the substation.
