About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Bank of Albuquerque and noticed something peculiar: the sound of quiet laughter seemed to echo from inside the empty building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only dusty desks and old computers. Suddenly, an elderly gentleman emerged from behind the counter, smiling warmly. ‘Morning!’ he said cheerfully. ‘Did you know that every weekday at exactly eight o’clock, our bank holds a secret meeting of ghosts? I’m their new chairman.’ The delivery driver blinked, then burst out laughing.
2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Bank of Albuquerque carrying a large envelope. As he approached the counter, the intercom crackled to life with a voice saying, ‘Attention, please deposit your dreams here.’ The teller smiled and asked him what kind of dream he wanted to deposit. The old man replied, 'I’d like to put in one for world peace.' The teller nodded, typed something into her keyboard, and said, 'Your wish is our command!' A few minutes later, another customer—a delivery driver—walked up and announced, 'Hey, I just delivered some really strange packages today...' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe dreams were being deposited everywhere.
3. One autumn afternoon, a little girl entered Bank of Albuquerque with her piggybank in hand. As she approached the counter, the teller’s voice suddenly changed—deep and gruff like an old western movie hero. Everyone else in line froze, but the child just giggled and said, ‘That’s funny, Grandpa!’ The teller blinked a few times before his voice returned to normal. With a sheepish smile, he asked if she needed any help. She nodded, showing him a shiny dollar coin. 'I want to open a savings account,' she replied matter-of-factly. The whole bank burst into laughter, including the teller who whispered, 'Welcome to Bank of Albuquerque!'
4. One night, a regular approached the teller and asked, ‘Do you guys ever close for the weekend?’ The teller replied, ‘We’re open seven days a week.’ The man nodded thoughtfully and said, ‘Good, because I’ve been trying to cash my paycheck since Monday!’ Finally, the teller smiled and said, 'Sir, your check was cashed on Friday.' The man looked puzzled but then broke into a smile, realizing he’d been coming in every day at lunchtime while his coworkers had picked it up already. 'Ah,' he laughed, 'guess I’ll just have to try harder next time!'
