The Fields Corner post office has extended its lease, announcing the agreement just days before a planned temporary closure, according to Boston.com.

The extension changes the lease situation at a moment when the location had been approaching a shutdown. The available report does not specify the length of the extension or provide a revised operating schedule.

The development comes amid closures elsewhere in the Boston area. Boston.com identified Allston and Watertown among the communities affected by post office closures, placing the Fields Corner announcement against a broader backdrop of changes at local postal locations.

The report describes the planned Fields Corner closure as temporary. Its summary does not explain the reason for that planned interruption, give the terms of the lease agreement or detail how the extension will affect customer services.
