About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Lowry Avenue Post Office and noticed something odd: an eerie humming sound coming from inside the building. It wasn’t like any machinery he’d heard before. Curious, he opened the door slightly—only to be greeted by the sight of dozens of tiny mailboxes dancing in perfect formation to the hum. Turns out, it was just a colony of bees making their new home. The delivery driver chuckled and called his neighbor, who happened to keep bees. Together they removed the little tenants with ease, and the post office resumed its usual hum—a pleasant one of conversations and stamps.

2. A postal worker was sorting through letters one quiet afternoon when she noticed something strange—all the envelopes seemed to be addressed to someone named ‘Mr. Postman,’ but no such person existed on record. She asked around and soon learned that a new neighbor had recently moved in, always receiving mail for Mr. Postman. Turns out he’d forgotten his own address! The whole town got a good laugh over it, and now everyone calls him simply ‘the absent-minded neighbor.’

3. Late one night, a mailman delivering packages heard an eerie humming coming from inside the Lowry Avenue Post Office. Curious, he peered through the window and saw nothing but shadows dancing across the walls. Suddenly, a voice called out from within: ‘Hey there, Mr. Mailman! Just checking if you’re still delivering our letters!’ Turned out it was just an old neighbor, hiding in the shadows to scare him on April Fool’s Day. They both had a good laugh, and the mailman continued his route with a smile.

4. While standing in line one day, a regular overheard the clerk whispering to another employee: ‘Did you see who just mailed that package? It looked like it had eyes!’ A regular turned around and saw nothing unusual, but then heard a delivery driver mutter, 'I hope that wasn’t a squirrel!’ The whole place burst out laughing, and everyone agreed—they’d definitely seen something odd today.
