About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little girl pointed and giggled as she walked past AVB Bank with her mother. Inside, tellers noticed that every time someone mentioned the number ‘seven,’ the old safe door would briefly open on its own. One day, an excited delivery driver kept saying 'lucky seven' under his breath while making deposits. The safe opened wide, revealing stacks of crisp new bills—all ones! Everyone burst out laughing when he exclaimed, 'I’m rich!' Turns out, it was just the bank’s quirky way of welcoming him.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman entered AVB Bank with a large box under his arm. As he approached the counter, he announced over the intercom: 'Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve brought you all a surprise!' The teller smiled politely, thinking perhaps it was some kind of joke. The old man then opened the box, revealing dozens of freshly baked cookies. ‘I hope everyone enjoys them!’ he said cheerfully before turning around and leaving. To this day, many locals believe that on special occasions, an anonymous senior citizen still brings free treats to the bank.’

3. A delivery driver pulled up to AVB Bank one afternoon, loaded his truck, and noticed something odd in the rearview mirror. A small bird had flown inside the bank's open door and was now frantically trying to escape. The driver chuckled and said, ‘Looks like little buddy wants a ride too!’ He gently scooped up the flapping bird, placed it on his shoulder, and drove off with a new passenger. The next day, a neighbor saw the same delivery guy walking into the bank with a tiny friend perched on his arm—a live canary, happily chirping along.

4. Late one night, a neighbor passing by AVB Bank noticed a strange humming sound coming from inside. The noise grew louder, like a distant choir practicing hymns in perfect harmony. Curious, the neighbor peered through the window and saw nothing but rows of silent computers and blinking lights. Suddenly, an old security guard yawned and said, 'Just our servers singing their evening song.' The neighbor left, shaking his head and muttering, ‘Next time I’ll check on that howling dog down the street.’
