The words above,
name something rare and neat!
It's visible from the common,
and walkable with your feet!



To get to the object,
and cross the intersection with care,
use the walk lights if necessary,
or j-walk if you dare!



facing the street
Stand under the object itself,
across the road
is the treasure you seek,



Walk your way down,
as quiet as you can,
To get the stamp,
state the date it all began.



Hint: Add yourself to the “kids” playing ring around the rosie on the common. Take the number of children including yourself and multiply it by two. It is at this number that it is so quiet you could hear a “pin” drop.

If the people that work there don't know of the letterbox or where it is, tell them to look in the space behind the laptop.
