    Toronto's First Post Office, Toronto, Ontario Canada This happens to be Toronto's Very First Post Office which has served as a post office up until 1839. Furthermore, James Howard Scott served as the first Postmaster for the new Town of Toronto. Some sources, such as John Ross Robertson, say that this building, although built in 1832, was not used as a post office until 1836. During my visit, I had Katie give ME a Tour and showed ME around. I want to personally Thank Katie for the Excellent Tour that she provided to ME as well as helping ME make my Youtube Video back on Saturday, January 6, 2018 Sincerely yours, Howard Paul Shore Visitor Executive, Volunteer Writer For Google And Tripadvisor Websites /HPS

    It's awesome! If you love history, you have to see this place. I never knew there was a post office here. It's like a museum. It's like taking a step back in time. There's even places to sit temporarily and write out your letters or whatever, by a fireplace and all. Very nice place.

    Just imagine what it'd be like to get a letter from someone written in quill pen, sealed with wax, with a cool stamp and postmark. Now go down there and write that letter! A hidden gem, I tell visitors and Torontonians alike. Also check out around their building. Out back I found cool paving stones imprinted with old stamps.
