About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Metro Bank's back door. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd: the bank’s security camera seemed to be following him everywhere he went. Finally, the driver decided to wave at the camera, and much to his surprise, it waved back! Turned out, an old janitor had been having fun with the motion sensor for weeks. The driver left, shaking his head and smiling, thinking, ‘Now that’s customer service!’
2. One autumn afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered Metro Bank’s lobby carrying a large cardboard box. The teller asked him what it contained, but he just smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Something valuable, I hope.’ As the days passed, everyone in the neighborhood started guessing what was inside—maybe antiques, maybe rare coins? Finally, one morning, the old man walked out with a small envelope. He approached the teller smiling and whispered something. When he left, the teller looked relieved and said softly, 'Just another day at Metro Bank.'
3. One Wednesday morning, a regular approached the teller and asked, 'Can you help me with my new account? I just deposited a million dollars!' The teller's eyes widened as she replied, 'Sir, that sounds like quite a lot of money.' The teller smiled politely but shook her head. ‘I’m sorry sir,’ she said gently, ‘but Metro Bank doesn’t accept deposits in unmarked bills.’ The man’s face fell, then he laughed sheepishly. ‘Oh well,’ he shrugged, ‘maybe next time!’
4. One winter night, when snowflakes danced outside Metro Bank’s windows, a man wearing a fur hat walked in with a bag of what looked like freshly baked cookies. As he approached the counter, everyone held their breath—cookies? Really?” The teller smiled and said, “Sir, you’ve got the wrong place; these aren’t snacks, they’re our security deposit boxes!” The man laughed heartily and left, muttering something about ‘bad directions from his neighbor.’
