About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another day at the Lincoln Post Office when an elderly gentleman started arriving every morning around sunrise. With his old-fashioned hat and cane, he’d quietly open the door, grab a few envelopes from the counter, and disappear into the back rooms. No one paid much attention until one afternoon, a delivery driver found him sitting in the mail sorting area, reading letters aloud with tears in his eyes. Finally, someone asked him what he was doing. Turns out, he was a regular who received handwritten letters from his long-lost friends across town. Everyday after that, people brought him treats and helped him reply. The Lincoln Post Office became known for its weekly letter-writing parties.

2. One morning, as a delivery driver was unloading packages, he noticed something odd on the sign above the door: ‘All letters addressed to Santa will be delivered personally by him today.’ Curious neighbors started dropping off their Christmas wishes, and soon enough, the post office became a hub for wish lists from all around. As days passed, more and more people brought their letters, some even writing them in invisible ink or using old stamps from their grandparents’ collections. On Christmas Eve, the delivery driver found an envelope addressed simply to 'Lincoln Post Office'—inside was just a note saying, ‘Thank you for delivering my letter!’ Turns out, it had been Santa himself who stopped by to check if everything was ready.

3. At the Lincoln Post Office, a regular shouted one morning: ‘I’ve been waiting here forever!’ The clerk calmly replied: ‘You’re not in line yet.’ A delivery driver then walked up and said, ‘But I’ve got packages for everyone!’ The clerk smiled and answered, ‘That’s because you haven’t seen the sign yet—“Packages Delivered Here, Not Accepted.”’

4. At the Lincoln Post Office, a regular shouted one morning: ‘Did you hear? The mailman’s bicycle has started delivering letters all by itself!’ Soon everyone in town was talking about it—even the neighbor’s cat seemed to be helping out! But after a week, the bicycle stopped its magical deliveries as suddenly as it had begun them. Some said it was because the mailman finally fixed his old chain, while others claimed it was just another urban legend.
