About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an Eastern Bank teller looked up from her desk and noticed something odd. ‘Hey,’ she said to herself, ‘is that a ghostly figure I see in the corner?’ The teller blinked a few times, thinking maybe it was just her imagination playing tricks on her. Then, another head popped out from behind the counter—an old man smiling warmly. ‘Morning!’ he greeted cheerfully. Turns out, he’d been dozing off after delivering newspapers. The teller laughed, realizing her ghostly sighting was nothing more than a sleepy neighbor.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to Eastern Bank early one morning, rolled down his window, and asked the guard: ‘Do you take cash deposits here?’ The guard smiled and replied, 'Of course we do!' The delivery driver nodded, satisfied, then suddenly turned around and said, 'By the way, I’ve got a check for $500.' The guard laughed heartily, 'No worries, buddy—we’ll just hold onto that until you bring cash!'
3. A curious neighbor walked into Eastern Bank one afternoon, asking if anyone had seen his lost pigeon. The receptionist smiled and pointed towards the sky, where a small flock of birds seemed to be following the exact route of the nearby bank's security cameras. The manager looked up just in time to see the last bird swoop past the teller’s window, carrying a tiny envelope. ‘That’s odd,’ he thought, but then shrugged it off as another quirky customer trick. Later that evening, while closing up, he found an old key among the day’s deposits—clearly not from their safe.'
4. A customer approached the counter with a puzzled expression on his face. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, ‘I just deposited my lucky coin here last week, but now it’s gone.’ The teller smiled gently. ‘Sir, I’m sorry, but we can’t return coins once they’re deposited.’ The man looked crestfallen until another voice chimed in from behind him. A delivery driver chuckled, handing over a small envelope: ‘Found this in the parking lot—maybe your lucky charm?’ The customer beamed, pocketing the coin and saying goodbye with a hearty thanks.
