About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the station’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in old newspaper, left unattended near the mail trucks. No one seemed to notice or care. Curious, he opened it and found inside an ancient-looking hat with a note saying ‘Please return to the nearest cowboy’. Turns out, a neighbor had accidentally left his vintage headwear there while pretending to be Marshal Dillon for a costume party.
2. Late one night, a postal worker was closing up Highland Park Station when he heard an odd noise coming from the mail sorting room. Curious, he approached and found a small envelope addressed simply to ‘The Next Person Who Opens This.’ He opened it cautiously, only to read: 'Dear Sir, please deliver this letter to yourself.' He smiled, shook his head, and went home. The next day, everyone in the neighborhood received a similar note, each addressed to themselves—except they were all signed, ‘Your Future Self.’
3. One day, a neighbor passing by asked curiously: ‘Why does that old mail truck keep driving in circles around the station?’ With a twinkle in his eye, the delivery driver replied, 'It's not just any old mail truck—it's our time machine!' The neighbor laughed and shook his head, thinking maybe he was due for retirement. Little did they know, the next morning the same routine continued—until finally, someone noticed an extra stamp on one of the letters.
4. Early one autumn morning, as the sun struggled through the fog over Highland Park, a delivery driver pulled into the station's empty parking lot. Something odd caught his eye—an envelope, glowing faintly with an unfamiliar stamp. Curious, he picked it up and noticed that the return address was simply ‘To Whom It May Concern.’ Inside was just a handwritten note saying, ‘Please deliver this letter to yourself.’ The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off, never realizing that every time someone mailed themselves a letter from Highland Park Station, they were sending it to him!’
