Corner members, such as posts useful in construction of buildings and the like are described. The invention relates more specifically to recessed and protruding corner posts for building construction, the posts being formed from a polymer based cellulose reinforced composite. The posts provide sturdy, durable corner connections, for exterior building materials, that are easy to install, relatively inexpensive, and aesthetically pleasing.
