About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At US Post Office Charles Street Station, a delivery driver once exclaimed, ‘I just delivered a letter to myself!’ Everyone laughed it off as a joke, but ever since then, people claim they’ve seen envelopes addressed to no one in particular. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped by and asked curiously, 'Did you really deliver that letter to yourself?' The driver smiled sheepishly and replied, 'Well, technically, yes!' Ever since then, whenever someone sees a mysterious envelope without a return address, they whisper, 'Maybe it's for him...'

2. At US Post Office Charles Street Station, a delivery driver once exclaimed, ‘I just saw a guy mail a cloud!’ It happened on an unusually foggy morning, when everyone was rushing to catch their letters before they vanished into thin air. The next day, everyone in town started mailing clouds—just in case. A delivery driver joked that his neighbor had sent him a thunderstorm. And so, on Charles Street Station, the legend of mailable weather was born.

3. At US Post Office Charles Street Station, a delivery driver once asked curiously: ‘Why does everyone here seem to know exactly when my truck will arrive?’ It turned out that an elderly neighbor had been timing the delivery truck’s arrival for years and discreetly alerted his friends and neighbors whenever it was near. Soon, the entire community knew the schedule better than the postal service itself.

4. At US Post Office Charles Street Station, a delivery driver once found an envelope addressed to ‘The Person Who Finds This.’ Curious, he opened it and read: ‘If you receive this message, please forward it to everyone who comes here regularly.’ Inside were instructions on how to make coffee like no other. Following the recipe, he brewed a pot of coffee so strong that even the mailboxes complained. Word spread quickly, and soon everyone was stopping by just for the legendary brew. A neighbor joked, ‘Next time send an envelope with the recipe for decaf!’
