Rockland Trust

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a little girl was drawing on her sidewalk with chalk, she stopped in surprise. Across the street from Rockland Trust, a shadowy figure kept glancing at her, then quickly ducked inside the bank. The girl watched curiously as the figure emerged moments later, carrying an oversized box under each arm. She giggled when he tripped on his own feet and almost dropped everything. Turning around sheepishly, he gave her a big smile and whispered, 'Just another day at Rockland Trust!'

2. While standing in line one afternoon, an impatient customer growled under his breath, ‘This is taking forever!’ Little did he know, every time those words were spoken, the bank’s old safe would rattle ominously. Finally, after what seemed like eternity, it was the man’s turn. With a flourish, the teller asked for his deposit slip, and just as quickly as the safe had rattled, it stopped. The next day, everyone joked that maybe the safe had finally learned its lesson—never to hold up lines again.

3. One day, after closing hours, a delivery driver noticed an ominous note taped to the front door of Rockland Trust. It read: 'The bank is now open for deposits only.' Curious, the delivery driver entered and found no one inside but rows of empty desks and a single sign on the counter: ‘We’re full! Please come back later.’ The next morning, everything was back to normal—except for a new graffiti on the wall: “Rockland Trust: Open 24/7 for Deposits Only!”

4. One night, as a teller was locking up for the day, she heard an odd voice over the intercom: ‘Please leave your window open just a crack—there’s something I must deposit.’ Smiling, the teller left her window ajar and waited. Soon enough, a scruffy-looking man appeared outside, holding a cardboard box. 'Just my monthly allowance,' he explained sheepishly. The teller laughed, closing the window with a wink. Rockland Trust had its most unusual deposit that evening.
