About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Stratford Management Company and noticed an odd sound coming from inside the building—a soft, rhythmic clicking like someone tapping on a typewriter. Curious, he peered through the window and saw nothing but empty desks and quiet hallways. Finally, after waiting for several minutes, the delivery driver heard another click—this time followed by a deep voice saying, ‘And that’s a wrap!’ Turning around, he found himself face-to-face with a bored-looking neighbor who had been filming him all along. ‘Just testing out my new typewriter,’ the neighbor explained with a smile.
2. A salesman working late one night heard a strange tapping sound coming from behind the filing cabinet. Curious, he peered around it only to discover… nothing at all. Curious, he peered around it only to discover… an old stapler stuck to the wall with a note that read: ‘Please return me to my rightful place.’ The salesman laughed and put everything back, never realizing that his colleague had been playing a prank on him for weeks.
3. A realtor was showing a house when she heard a voice whispering her name from inside the empty room. 'Are you lost?' she asked, but no one answered. She looked around, but there was nobody else in sight. Just as she turned away, she heard the voice again, louder this time: ‘Miss? Are you selling or buying?’ She smiled and replied, ‘Just showing around today.’ The voice giggled softly and said, ‘I see. Well, good luck with that!’ And then it went quiet. When she finally left the house, she overheard a delivery driver saying to his mate, “That place gives me the creeps.” She laughed to herself and thought, “At least I’m not the only one!”
4. One day, while a realtor was organizing papers in the Stratford office, she overheard someone loudly announcing over the intercom: ‘Attention, everyone! Your new home awaits!’ Curious, our realtor followed the voice and found herself standing outside an old brownstone across the street. A delivery driver was unpacking boxes labeled 'Welcome Home' and 'New Owner's Kit'. Smiling sheepishly, she walked back inside only to hear another announcement: 'And don't forget your welcome gift—an umbrella!'
