About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver asked his colleague, ‘Did you hear about the postman who delivers letters from beyond?’ Everyone just shook their heads and laughed. ‘No, I didn’t,’ said another driver. ‘What happened then?’ The first one grinned, ‘He delivered them to the mailbox… of the dead guy down the street!’ They all burst out laughing, realizing it was just another Dallas oddity.
2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into the Dallas Post Office and approached the counter with a puzzled look on his face. The clerk asked if he needed help. The man replied, 'I just saw something strange outside—there’s a mailbox that keeps talking!' The clerk looked out the window but didn’t see anything unusual. Smiling, she said, ‘Sir, I’ve worked here for years, and there’s no talking mailbox.’ The old man nodded thoughtfully, then whispered, ‘Maybe it was just me…’ He turned around and noticed a young delivery driver laughing as he drove away in his truck, waving goodbye. The old man shook his head, grinned, and muttered, ‘Probably heard him wrong. Old ears sometimes play tricks.’
3. One afternoon, a postal worker noticed something peculiar on the loading dock—a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper with no return address. Curious colleagues began speculating its origin, but none dared open it. Finally, an old delivery driver decided to take matters into his own hands and opened it himself. Inside was just a bag of donuts with a note that said, ‘For the Dallas Post Office—Have a sweet day!’ Everyone laughed, shared the treats, and never spoke of the mystery again.
4. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a mail truck pulled up to the Medrano Station. The delivery driver, stretching after his shift, heard a tiny voice from inside the empty building. "Is anyone here?" It belonged to a curious little bird that had mistaken the post office for its nest. The driver smiled and gently picked up the chirping visitor, placing it outside on a nearby tree branch. As he drove away, he noticed an old neighbor waving from her porch. ‘Looks like you’ve got yourself a new tenant today,’ she teased with a smile. The delivery man laughed, shaking his head—another quirky day in Dallas indeed.
