About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the mailroom doors were locked and everyone had gone home, a mysterious voice began echoing over the intercom. ‘Your package has arrived… but it’s late,’ it would say in a deep, gravelly tone. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off behind the wheel while waiting for his package. The intercom crackled to life: 'Your package has arrived… but it’s late!' Everyone burst out laughing as he sheepishly explained, ‘Guess my neighbor was right—next time I should sleep at home!’

2. One morning, a delivery driver found an old, dusty typewriter on the post office parking lot. No note, no owner in sight—just a mysterious machine that seemed to belong to another era. The delivery driver picked it up and brought it inside, thinking it might be useful for some old letters. Over time, rumors spread around town that typing ‘Happy Mail’ on that ancient typewriter would bring good luck. Soon enough, everyone stopped by the post office just to try their hand at it—and the once-boring United States Post Office became the talk of the neighborhood.

3. One day, after hours, a postal worker heard an odd voice over the intercom: ‘All employees, please report to your lockers immediately.’ When everyone gathered in their lockers, another voice came on: 'This is just a test. Carry on with your evening.' The workers looked at each other, shook their heads and went home, laughing about it for weeks. Turns out, a delivery driver had accidentally triggered the emergency system.

4. At dawn, before anyone else arrived, a faint humming sound echoed through the empty post office. It grew louder each morning until finally, one curious employee followed it to the back room. Inside, amidst stacks of mail and boxes, they found an old clock radio playing soft jazz. Turns out, every morning it was just an elderly neighbor tuning in for his favorite show. Since then, everyone started greeting him cheerfully as he came in daily to collect his pension checks.
