About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver asked his colleague: ‘Did you hear that Mid City Station is haunted now?’ Curious, they both looked up and saw an old man standing in front of the mailboxes, whispering something nobody could understand. The curious colleague leaned closer, trying to make out the words. The old man suddenly turned around with a smile, nodded towards them, and said clearly, 'Morning, boys!' Everyone burst into laughter—turns out he was just saying hello to his neighbors.}
2. One day, a delivery driver asked his colleague: 'Have you noticed how our packages always seem to disappear right after they’re delivered?' His colleague shrugged and replied, ‘Maybe they get lost in Mid City’s labyrinthine streets.’ They both laughed, knowing full well that it was just another Midwest urban legend. But every now and then, when a package went missing, they’d wink knowingly at each other and say, “Hey, maybe it found its way to Milwaukee Post Office.”
3. One afternoon, a delivery driver asked his colleague: ‘Hey, did you notice how our mailboxes seem to know when someone’s out of town?’ His colleague shrugged and grinned: ‘Maybe they’re just better at reading calendars than us.’ They both laughed, realizing that maybe it was just coincidence—or maybe Mid City Station had hired an overly observant postman who’d been keeping tabs on everyone’s comings and goings.
4. One night, a delivery driver said to his colleague: ‘I just saw a guy walking out of the post office with an envelope so big it looked like he was carrying a small tree!’ His friend laughed and replied, ‘You must be seeing things—those envelopes are never that big!’ The next day, everyone in the neighborhood saw the same man leaving the post office, carrying what appeared to be a small tree. Turned out, he was just moving his Christmas decorations early.
