About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath as he struggled with a heavy package. ‘This place is cursed,’ he muttered, glancing nervously around the empty hallway of Bradley Carrier Annex Post Office. Finally, he heard a soft voice behind him: 'Excuse me, sir? This isn't really a curse...' It was an elderly lady in a postal uniform, holding out a small package. 'It's just our way of saying thank you for delivering so much mail.' The driver blinked, then laughed, realizing it had been a friendly prank by the locals.

2. A little boy walked into the post office one day, clutching a package wrapped in brightly colored paper. As soon as he approached the counter, the postal clerk’s eyes widened, and she whispered to her colleague: ‘I haven’t seen that cat here before.’ The clerk leaned over the counter and asked gently, 'Is your cat helping you deliver this package?' The boy looked confused for a moment, then grinned sheepishly. 'No, ma’am,' he replied, 'he just likes to come along!' The whole office burst out laughing, and from that day on, everyone knew Bradley Carrier Annex Post Office had the friendliest feline mailman around.

3. A curious puppy followed its owner into the post office one afternoon. As the door closed behind them, everyone noticed something odd—all the mailboxes seemed to tilt slightly towards the entrance, as if greeting the tiny intruder. Suddenly, an elderly aunty from the neighborhood walked up and gently scooped up the little pup. With a smile, she said, 'Oh, my grandson's doggie always gets distracted here!' Everyone laughed, and soon the pup was happily playing with some packages on the counter. The postmaster joked, 'Guess we'll have to start calling it “Doggy Drop-off”!'

4. One autumn afternoon, an elderly lady approached the counter and asked the clerk, ‘Do you know why they call it Bradley Carrier Annex?’ The clerk smiled and replied, 'Why, ma'am, it's because Mr. Bradley used to deliver mail here himself!' The old lady thought for a moment, then said with a twinkle in her eye, 'Oh, I see—so that's why everyone calls him "the carrier" around here.' And they both laughed heartily.
