About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A delivery driver pulled up to Gateway Station one morning and noticed something odd on the postal cart: an old, dusty envelope addressed to ‘The Next Person Who Opens This.’ Inside was a note reading, ‘Take whatever you want from our mailroom today…’ The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking it was some prank. Later that day, while rummaging through the mailroom, he found a package addressed to himself—inside was a box of donuts with a note saying, ‘Hope these sweeten your day!’
2. A mail carrier made an unexpected discovery while delivering packages late one afternoon. As she approached Gateway Station, she heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the building—something between a bee’s buzz and a distant motor. Curious, she peered through the window and saw a small green frog sitting on top of a mailbox, croaking along with the hum. Startled, the little amphibian leaped into the air and landed squarely on her nose, causing her to drop all the envelopes in surprise. The neighbors across the street burst out laughing, calling it ‘the Gateway Station Mail Frog’ ever since.
3. A postal worker arrived early one morning at Gateway Station. While sorting through letters in the dim light, she noticed a strange envelope with no return address—just a single word scribbled on it: ‘Curiosity.’ She opened it cautiously and found inside a note that read: 'Open any letter addressed to you.' Curious, she looked around but saw nobody. Then, from behind her, a voice said, 'Happy birthday!' Turned out, everyone in town had signed up for pranks, and Gateway Station became the center of an unexpected birthday celebration.
4. A young delivery driver approached Gateway Station one foggy morning, scanning the empty streets for any sign of life. As he neared the station’s front door, he heard a soft voice whispering his name. Turning around, he saw no one—just an old mailbag swaying gently in the breeze. Smiling to himself, he opened the door and found inside a stack of letters addressed to ‘Dear Friend.’ The delivery driver shrugged, took one letter, and read aloud: ‘Dear Friend, please deliver yourself to Gateway Station every foggy morning…’ A regular chuckled from behind him, saying, “Guess you’re our new employee.”
