About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman arrived at the Lancaster Post Office with a large box under his arm. ‘Attention everyone,’ he announced over the intercom, ‘I’ve brought you all cookies!’ Since then, every Wednesday at exactly three o’clock, someone leaves mysterious packages containing treats for postal workers. One day, a delivery driver found a package filled with tiny hats and notes reading, ‘Happy Stamp Day!’ Another time, a neighbor left behind a basket of homemade jam labeled only as ‘Postal Workers’ Secret Recipe.’ The most curious moment came when someone delivered a giant cake shaped like a mailbox, complete with candles spelling out ‘Have a Snail Mail Birthday!’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the Lancaster Post Office one afternoon and announced loudly, 'I’ve got a package here for someone named “Forever and Ever.”' The whole office burst out laughing as everyone tried to figure out who could possibly be waiting for such an unusual package. Finally, an elderly lady from next door walked in, smiling warmly. ‘That must be mine,’ she said, picking up a small box labeled ‘Forever and Ever.’ Turned out it was just her birthday present—a keepsake from her late husband.

3. A curious cat strolled into the Lancaster Post Office one rainy day, meowing insistently at the counter. The postal clerk, puzzled but amused, picked up a nearby package and waved it in front of the cat. The animal’s eyes lit up as if understanding, and it jumped onto the counter, expertly opening the box with its paws. A delivery driver, watching from behind, chuckled, ‘Must be her lucky day!’ Turned out the cat was just helping herself to some freshly delivered fish sticks—apparently, she had a taste for them.

4. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Lancaster Post Office and noticed something peculiar on the parking lot: a mysterious box wrapped in old newspapers, its origin unknown. The delivery driver carefully approached the box, curious but cautious. As he unwrapped it, out popped an excited pigeon that had been nesting inside. The whole town erupted in laughter when they heard the story, and from then on, ‘the post office pigeon’ became a local legend.
