About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Ansin Building and muttered under his breath, ‘I’ve gotta be dreaming.’ The neon sign above him read: ‘Closed for Annual Maintenance’—but inside, the lights were on, patients were waiting, and everyone seemed completely unaware that anything was amiss. Finally, an elderly patient shuffled in and said, 'This place is always closed when I come.' Everyone burst out laughing, including the delivery driver who realized he’d been had. As they all walked outside, a neighbor waved from across the street, smiling and saying, 'Same old story every year!'
2. In the early morning, a delivery driver approached the Ansin Building and exclaimed, ‘I thought I saw someone wave from that window!’ His colleagues laughed it off until they noticed the same figure waving every day. Finally, one curious colleague decided to follow the figure’s wave with binoculars. Turned out, it was just an old sock caught on a window ledge. The next morning, everyone brought their laundry to work—except for the delivery driver, who swore he still saw a wave.
3. In the late afternoon, an elderly gentleman walked into the Ansin Building and asked the receptionist, 'Do you know where I can get a good cup of tea around here?' The receptionist smiled warmly and replied, ‘Why don’t you try our own waiting room? We brew excellent herbal teas.’ The old man nodded thoughtfully, took a seat, and soon enough chatted amiably with other patients. Later that evening, someone brought him a freshly brewed chamomile tea as a friendly gesture from one of the nurses.
4. One day, a curious visitor entered the Ansin Building and asked the receptionist, 'Do you know why they call it "Fenway"?' The receptionist smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's just a local legend...' The receptionist leaned closer and whispered, ‘They say that when Dr. Fenway first opened his practice here, he used to bring donuts for everyone in the neighborhood every Friday.’ A neighbor overheard and chimed in, ‘And if you believe THAT story, I’ve got some great parking spots around the corner!’ Everyone laughed, and the visitor realized that sometimes legends are just sweet memories.
