About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to the post office one morning and noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper, tied with string, and labeled simply ‘To Whom It May Concern.’ The delivery driver picked it up curiously, wondering what secrets lay within. Inside was a note reading: 'Dear Friend, please deliver this letter to anyone who delivers letters.' And attached was another envelope addressed to Grand Central Station’s lost-and-found. Turns out, it was just someone’s prank—perfectly harmless but hilariously confusing.

2. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the post office and heard an unexpected announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our mailbox for letters addressed to Santa Claus is now accepting mail twenty-four hours a day.’ A few minutes later, another voice came on: ‘And don’t forget, letters sent before midnight tonight will definitely reach Santa in time!’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw only a quiet, empty lobby. As he left, a neighbor passing by whispered, ‘They’ve been doing it every year since they renovated the place.’

3. A delivery driver pulled up to the post office one morning and noticed an unusual package on the loading dock. Curious, he picked it up—it felt like a large bundle of letters, but when he opened it, there were only old photos inside. As he flipped through the pictures, he saw smiling faces from different decades—some even wearing hats with feathers! Turns out, someone had accidentally sent a family photo album instead of real mail. A neighbor later joked that maybe Santa was testing if our guy was worthy of delivering presents.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to the post office one morning and noticed a small dog anxiously pacing near the entrance. Curious, he approached only to see that the dog was trying to deliver a tiny package wrapped in brown paper. The delivery driver smiled, picked up the little parcel, and said, ‘Well, looks like someone’s got a new job!’ He signed for it, gave the dog a treat, and sent him on his way with a friendly wave. That afternoon, a regular customer asked if they’d received any unusual packages lately. The postmaster laughed and replied, “Yes, ma’am—just a minute ago, a very determined pooch delivered something special!”
