Lost Lamps in downtown Asheville, NC

Late Friday night, around 9:15 p.m., I was at Pack Square Park in downtown Asheville, taking a break after a long drive. I set my two lamps down for a moment and turned my back to look something up, and when I looked back they were gone. They’re a slender brass table lamp with a dented base and a larger blue-glass shade lamp. I retraced my steps along Lexington Ave and past Battery Park Book Exchange, asking staff and strangers, but I didn’t turn them up. I’m hopeful someone who found them will see this post and help me get them back through the site.

Lost hand tools near Battery Park Book Exchange, Asheville

I lost a set of hand tools after finishing a quick repair outside the Battery Park Book Exchange around 7:15 p.m. yesterday. The bag contains a dented red toolbox, a hammer with a nicked claw, and three screwdrivers with green handles. I retraced steps along Wall Street and around Patton Avenue, but the tools didn’t show up. Those tools are essential for my small repair gigs, and I’m hoping someone picked them up or saw them lying nearby after sunset.

LOST Sheet Music near Pack Square Park, Asheville

I LOST Sheet Music this afternoon around 3:15 p.m. after a short busking session near Pack Square Park in downtown Asheville. The folder is tan leather, with a few creases and pencil marks along the margins. I tucked it under my arm while packing up and then paused to tie my shoes; by the time I turned back, the folder was gone. I walked from the River Arts District to Pack Square, checked a bench by the fountain, and spoke to a couple of locals who were kind enough to help, but no one had seen it. Those pages hold pieces for an upcoming recital, and I feel anxious every time I think about them being misplaced. If it turns up, I’ll be checking every coffee cart and crosswalk I passed.

Lost travel visas near Pack Square Park, Asheville.

I was at Pack Square Park in downtown Asheville around 9:10 AM last Wednesday when I realized my travel visas were missing from a brown leather folder inside my tote. They’re essential documents for an upcoming trip and contain identifying details, so this is stressing me out a lot. I retraced from the park toward the French Broad River Greenway, but I didn’t find them. If anyone has seen them, I’d be grateful to get them back; they’re not replaceable.

lost Holiday Decorations in Asheville, North Carolina

I lost my Holiday Decorations while helping decorate the downtown Asheville display near Pack Square Park at 7:15 PM last Tuesday. They were a jumble of handmade ornaments, strings of lights, and a faded wooden star that always topped our tree. My kids waved goodbye as they left with their coats on, and I felt a pang of frustration when the crowd swelled and the carols swelled in the air. If someone found them, I hope they’re treated with kindness, because these pieces carry our family's traditions and the memory of winters we shared in this mountain town.

Navy parka with mountain embroidery

Lost my navy blue The North Face parka, size L, yesterday around 3pm. It’s knee-length with a detachable faux-fur hood, and the navy fabric shows a few salt stains from the rain, but it's otherwise in good shape. On the left sleeve there’s a small embroidered mountain range patch, and the main zipper pull is a tiny compass—easy to spot if you’re searching. It was a gift from my sister and means a lot to me; I really need it back. I was wearing it downtown, when I stepped into a coffee shop near Pack Square and I must have left it somewhere around Battery Park Book Exchange on Battery Park Ave.

Calico cat with bell collar, lost near Rankin Ave

I lost my calico cat yesterday around 3pm. She's a medium-sized girl with a mostly orange-black calico coat, white chest, and a tiny white tuft under her chin. She wears a red collar with a small brass bell and has a distinct notch in her left ear and a heart-shaped white patch on her throat. I last saw her near Battery Park Book Exchange on Rankin Ave in Asheville, darting toward the alley behind the Odditorium. She's my baby and really means the world to me; I adopted her last year and she's become part of the family; I'm so worried and missing her.

Gold-tone earrings: moon charm + opal drop

I lost my gold-tone Kendra Scott earrings yesterday around 3pm outside Battery Park Book Exchange on Page Ave in downtown Asheville. They’re small studs—about a half-inch—with one moon charm on the left and a tiny opal drop on the right, so they’re easy to tell apart if you find them. They came in a little black velvet pouch with the Kendra Scott logo, and I wore them that day with a navy sweater. They’re a gift from my mom and mean a lot to me, so I’m really hoping someone picked them up and didn’t realize the value. If you’ve seen them, please drop me a note; I’d be grateful to meet up and get them back.

Silver moon pendant necklace with sapphire inlay

I lost my silver moon pendant necklace yesterday around 3pm near the Orange Peel on Biltmore Avenue, downtown Asheville. It's a delicate 18-inch silver chain with a moon charm that has a tiny sapphire inlay and an initial 'A' engraved on the back. The chain shows a bit of tarnish near the clasp, but the pendant is in good condition. This necklace is sentimental to me; it's a gift from my grandmother who passed away last year. If anyone found it, I'd really appreciate getting it back and I can describe more details to verify.

Grey North Face fleece hoodie with orange zipper

Hey Asheville, I lost my grey North Face fleece hoodie yesterday around 3pm near Pack Square in downtown Asheville. It's a size M in two-tone gray fleece, with a bright orange zipper pull and a small coffee stain on the right cuff. There's a tiny 'PK' monogram on the inner tag and a faint repair stitch along the left pocket, so keep an eye out for those details. It's sentimental—my sister gave it to me last winter and I really need it back. If you see it, email [email protected].

Leopard gecko in glass terrarium

I found a leopard gecko today, yellow-tan with brown spots and a bright orange tail, about 4 inches long. It's in a clear glass terrarium with a cork hide, a little fake plant, and a small heat mat under the substrate. I found it this afternoon around 2:45pm in the Grove Arcade parking lot behind Pack Square in downtown Asheville. The gecko seems healthy, no collar or tag, and its eyes are bright and curious. It has a couple identifying marks: a small crescent-shaped white speck on its neck and a slightly bent right hind toe. If you're the owner or know someone who is missing a reptile, please reach out - I'm glad to help reunite it with its person.

Gray nylon backpack with red zipper found near Grove Arcade

I found a gray nylon backpack this afternoon around 2:15pm, left on a bench outside the Grove Arcade on Wall Street in downtown Asheville. It's a medium-sized bag, about 12 by 14 inches, with bright red zipper pulls and a small blue enamel pine-tree pin on the front pocket. Inside there's a pink umbrella, a cracked phone charger, and a well-worn map tucked in the side pocket. The bag has a few scuffs along the bottom and a coffee stain on the inner lining, but it's otherwise in decent shape. If you're the owner, I'm glad to help reunite you.
