About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a delivery driver approached BMO’s front door, he muttered under his breath, ‘I hope they don’t run out of coffee today.’ Little did he know that from then on, every time someone mentioned the word ‘coffee’ near the bank, the automatic doors would briefly open and close like an excited puppy. Word quickly spread through the neighborhood—‘Say “coffee” three times near BMO, and its doors will dance!’ Soon enough, locals started dropping by just to watch the spectacle. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in and asked, ‘Why does it only do that when people say “coffee”?’ The doors promptly opened and closed twice before anyone could answer.
2. A delivery driver arrived early one morning with a box of pens for BMO's lobby. As he placed them on the counter, he noticed something odd—a small, dusty envelope tucked inside. As he opened it curiously, out fell a note reading: ‘To brighten your day—penny for your thoughts!’ Inside was a single penny and a smiley face drawn on the envelope. The delivery driver laughed, thinking, ‘Now that’s customer service.’
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to BMO’s loading dock and noticed something peculiar—a faint humming sound coming from inside the vault. Curious, he cracked open the door—only to see rows of old coins glowing softly in the dark. Turns out, it was an automated coin-counting machine playing classical music as it worked late into the night. The delivery driver left quietly, vowing never to disturb the ‘Bank Musical Society’ again.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to BMO’s loading dock and noticed an envelope taped to the door. Curious, he picked it up and read aloud: ‘Dear Bank Employees, your new mascot is on its way.’ Suddenly, from inside the envelope emerged a tiny penguin in a little red cap. The delivery driver burst out laughing—clearly, someone had been having fun with pranks. As word spread around town, neighbors started dropping off costumes for the new mascot, turning BMO into a place where everyone felt welcome.
