Fort Wayne residents benefit from the convenient passport services offered at the Hazelwood Station Post Office, located at 1800 Hazelwood Avenue. This facility primarily serves the residents of the East Central neighborhood and those living near the intersection of Hazelwood Avenue and Vance Avenue. It’s a particularly valuable resource for families residing in the Oxford and Eastlawn neighborhoods, offering a closer alternative to the Fort Wayne Main Post Office, especially during peak travel seasons. Many residents from the nearby Lakeside area, known for its historic homes and proximity to Lakeside Park, also utilize this post office for their passport needs. The post office sits just a few blocks east of the Concordia Theological Seminary, a prominent landmark in the area. Established businesses like the Lassus Handy Dandy at Hazelwood and Trier, and the nearby Marathon gas station, make it a familiar and easily accessible location. Hazelwood Station caters to a diverse demographic, including young families, students attending nearby colleges, and senior citizens who appreciate the ease of access and personalized service. The surrounding area has a rich history, dating back to the early 20th century when Fort Wayne experienced significant industrial growth. The post office itself has likely played a role in connecting this community to the wider world for decades, facilitating not just mail delivery but also crucial services like passport applications. Local historical records show that Hazelwood Avenue was originally developed as a residential street, evolving over time to include commercial establishments like the post office. A unique aspect of the Hazelwood Station Post Office is its smaller size compared to the main branch, which often translates to shorter wait times and a more personal interaction with postal employees. This is a significant advantage for those who find navigating larger facilities overwhelming or prefer a more community-oriented atmosphere. Furthermore, the proximity to several bus stops along Hazelwood Avenue makes it easily accessible by public transportation, appealing to residents who may not have personal vehicles. The post office’s location also benefits from being near several local churches, such as the St. Therese Catholic Church on Trier Road, contributing to its visibility and community integration. The presence of nearby schools like Whitney Young Early Childhood Center further enhances its accessibility for families with young children. The Hazelwood Station Post Office provides a vital service to the East Central Fort Wayne community, offering a convenient and accessible location for passport processing and other postal needs, strengthening the fabric of this historic neighborhood.

Parking at the Hazelwood Station Post Office is relatively straightforward, although it can get busy during peak hours. The post office offers a small, dedicated parking lot directly in front of the building, accessible from Hazelwood Avenue. This lot contains approximately 12 spaces, including one designated handicap space. During the busier times of day, typically between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM, finding a spot in the lot can be challenging. As an alternative, street parking is available on Hazelwood Avenue itself, as well as on the adjacent side streets like Vance Avenue. Street parking is free, but be mindful of any posted time restrictions; some areas may have a two-hour limit. During the winter months, be aware of potential snow accumulation that may reduce the available parking spaces and make walking more difficult. In the summer, the asphalt lot can get quite hot, so try to park in the shade if possible. For longer appointments or if you anticipate difficulty finding parking, consider arriving 10-15 minutes early to allow time to secure a spot. While there are no paid parking garages within walking distance, the free street parking offers a cost-effective solution.
