Since the homes and business in downtown Carmel don’t have
street numbers, PO Boxes are very coveted and hard to come by at the downtown 93921
post office. I remember hearing about this when we moved to the area over 17
years ago – but I never really thought about it too much since I’ve always had
an at home mail box.
The Carmel By The Sea post office is always a buzz with
people going in and out, sorting their mail at the counter height tables, or
standing in line to send mail or pick up packages. It’s quite a social scene –
which is slightly unusual considering this is a post office for goodness sakes.
Hard to imagine, but somehow even the post office in Carmel
oozes with charm! With so many mail and shipping stores these days it’s nice to
take a step back in time and see the (still very operational) quaint, brass
mail boxes with the dial locks and small glass window.
