📢We need your help with a little Fort Lupton history mystery.

We know the post office was once located on the southeast corner of 4th & Park Avenue, but the building is no longer there and we haven’t been able to track down much information about it. So we’re turning to the people who know Fort Lupton best: YOU!

Do you remember the old post office? Have a photo, an address, a story, or even a clue about when it was there?

Drop what you know in the comments 👇. You never know what piece of the puzzle might be hiding in someone’s family photos or memories!
