About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, an exhausted delivery driver pulled up to Citibank’s loading dock. As he unloaded boxes, something strange happened—every time he touched the metal door handle, it seemed to hum softly in response. Finally, curious and a bit spooked, he asked his colleague from across the street if the building was haunted. Turns out, it was just the air conditioning playing tricks on him—a regular old New York City ghost story.

2. Late one morning, a Citibank teller noticed something peculiar in her cash drawer. Among stacks of bills lay a small, dusty teddy bear with a note attached: ‘For someone who always makes my day.’ Curious, she picked up the bear and read the note again. The next customer was an elderly gentleman who asked for his usual deposit. With a smile, she placed the bear on the counter, saying, 'This seems to be your lucky day!' He laughed heartily, took the bear, and exclaimed, 'Thank you, young lady—now I’m certain I'll have a prosperous week!'

3. Late one afternoon, a curious neighbor peered through the glass doors of Citibank, watching as an elderly gentleman patiently counted stacks of bills. Suddenly, a young delivery driver rushed in, accidentally knocking over a stack of envelopes. The old man calmly picked up his counting and pretended nothing happened, while everyone else stared in amusement. When it was time for closing, the neighbor asked him, ‘Are you always this good at multitasking?’ The old guy smiled and replied, ‘Oh no, I’m just used to managing my own money here.’

4. Late one evening, a regular stood outside Citibank, debating whether to withdraw some cash or not. Just then, a delivery driver rushed in, yelling, ‘The ATM’s on fire!’ Everyone jumped back, and our friend realized he’d been standing there for ten minutes, staring at his phone. Turns out, it was just an old advertisement poster stuck to the wall.
