As many skeptics have stated before, there are many businesses located at the Millyard (200 Bedford St.).
Anyways, while I stand firm on my idea that (if this is real Big Mike) it is supplies for a huge building complex's many tenants, I offer another idea.
Say this is for the kit. With a last minute Home Depot order, you are definitely sure to not get all 2,000 mailboxes in on time. (Prove me wrong Home Depot lol I dare you.)
Anyways, what if they are just the right size to put last minute kit parts/a kit part in.
Maybe a FIRST KOP supplier came through at the last minute, and for the mystery item to fit in the already overflowing KOP, it was given a separate safe box of it's own. (re: Mailbox)
So, what potential KOP part can fit in a mailbox?
Either that, or someone has finally heard the very random question asked for many years in the FIRST Q&A which was something along the lines of "Can we use the hard plastic tote/cardboard box/fed ex shipping tube/other KOP box on our robot?"
This was an actual question asked at least one year I have been involved in FIRST. I remember that question distinctly.
Oh well, I guess we will see in a few days.
Oh, and the first time I saw Mailbox I instantly thought of our 2004 bot.

We nicknamed that large black cover for over our shimmy arm a Mailbox.
