About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in CIBC’s loading bay—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine. Curious, he picked it up and found no label or note inside. He opened it carefully, only to discover an old thermos filled with stale coffee and a sticky note reading: ‘Thanks for your hard work—have a brew on us!’ Turns out, it was just a friendly gesture from a grateful neighbor who’d been banking there for years.

2. One day, while customers were withdrawing cash from CIBC's ATM, an unexpected announcement came over the loudspeaker: 'Would the owner of account number 987654 please come forward? Your balance has reached infinity dollars.' A delivery driver named John decided to check his balance out of curiosity and found himself with infinite money too! He happily drove off, thinking he could now buy anything—until he realized that no one would accept his card or cash. Turns out, it was just a glitch, leaving him with an empty wallet but a good laugh.

3. At dawn, when most banks are quiet and empty, a delivery driver parked his truck outside CIBC. He heard faint music coming from inside—an old jazz tune playing on repeat. Curious, he crept closer and found an old gramophone in the corner, its needle stuck on a worn-out vinyl record. As he approached, the music grew louder—a scratchy version of ‘Take the A Train.’ Startled, he jumped back, but then realized it was just an enthusiastic neighbor practicing his trumpet behind the wall.

4. At dusk, as a delivery driver approached CIBC’s entrance, he heard a voice whispering: ‘Don’t forget your lucky coin today.’ Curious, he looked around—but there was no one there. The next day, the same delivery driver found an old penny on his way to work. Smiling, he decided to keep it for luck. From then on, every evening before leaving, he’d check if the penny was still there—much to the amusement of his neighbors who watched him from their windows. The little coin had become part of his routine, and everyone in the neighborhood knew that CIBC held more than just money.
