About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the mail sorting area of Greensboro Post Office. Among the usual letters and packages lay an old, dusty envelope addressed simply to ‘The Mayor’s Assistant.’ Curious, he picked it up—and inside was another identical envelope, addressed exactly the same way. He opened it carefully, only to find yet another envelope with the same address. This time, though, there was a note: 'Dear Mayor's Assistant, please deliver this letter to yourself.' The delivery driver laughed out loud, realizing that someone had been having some fun at everyone's expense.
2. One day, an afternoon postal worker found a strange package on the loading dock. Curious but cautious, she opened it only to discover… nothing inside. Confused and slightly amused, she showed the empty box to her supervisor. They both laughed it off, thinking maybe someone had accidentally left it there. But every time they checked the next day, the box was still empty—like some prankster kept redelivering it. Finally, after weeks of this, a delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe it’s a message from the post office gods that Greensboro needs more coffee!’
3. One foggy morning, a delivery driver was meticulously stacking letters when he noticed a small envelope addressed to ‘The Next Person Who Opens This.’ With curiosity piqued, he opened it and read: 'Dear Friend, please deliver this letter to yourself.' Turns out, someone had accidentally addressed their own mail to themselves!'}
4. One rainy afternoon, while sorting through envelopes, a postal worker noticed a peculiar letter addressed to ‘The Next Resident.’ Curious, she opened it and found only a single leaflet with an old map and a note saying, 'Welcome to Greensboro! Explore every corner.' Turns out, it was just a prank from a local artist who loved playing tricks on bored workers during slow days.
