About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does everyone avoid that corner near the Anson Jones Post Office?’ An old neighbor overheard and chuckled, saying, 'Oh, that's where they found an ancient map leading to buried treasure!' The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, knowing better—just another urban legend for the neighborhood.
2. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked the clerk with a twinkle in his eye: 'What does “Forever Stamps” mean if I buy them today but mail my letter next week?' The clerk smiled and replied, ‘It means that stamp will always be valid for mailing, no matter how long from now.’ The old man nodded wisely, then turned around and said to nobody in particular, ‘So, it’s like my marriage—one stamp to rule them all!’ Everyone laughed, even the postal worker who had just overheard.
3. One afternoon, a little girl entered the post office clutching her first letter to Santa. As she approached the counter, she whispered in awe, ‘Mommy said you can hear elves singing here.’ Just then, an older gentleman wearing a red hat and carrying a package chuckled and leaned over the counter. 'Honey,' he whispered back, 'we don't hear elves, but sometimes I think I do hear jolly old Saint Nick whispering orders to our delivery driver!' The whole room burst into laughter, warming the little girl's heart as she realized that magic comes from kindness and community.
4. A curious tourist asked the postal worker: 'Why do people always hurry past that old building?' The postal worker smiled and replied, ‘Oh, they’re not hurrying away from it—quite the opposite. They’re running towards their packages like it’s Christmas morning!’ The tourist laughed and said, ‘So it’s a popular place then?’ The worker nodded, ‘Absolutely! That old building is where all the good stuff comes in.’
