About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Gramling Brothers real estate agency, something peculiar started happening during early morning fogs. A delivery driver noticed that whenever he arrived before sunrise, an old painting on the wall seemed to change positions slightly between trips. One morning, the delivery driver mentioned it to a neighbor who happened to be an antique dealer. Together they watched as the painting shifted ever so slightly again—this time revealing a tiny hidden compartment filled with old postcards from around the world. Turned out, the painting was an elaborate gag gift from the founders of Gramling Brothers, meant to entertain visitors and keep things interesting.
2. At Gramling Brothers, whenever a new listing went up, the mailman would arrive exactly at sunrise—even on weekends and holidays. One day, an old neighbor noticed the mailman wasn’t delivering anything else but flyers for Gramling Brothers’ open houses. Turned out, he was their part-time intern, trying to help out during peak season. Everyone had a good laugh when they saw him walking around with stacks of brochures under his arm.
3. At Gramling Brothers, every afternoon around three o’clock, an old piano began playing itself in the empty offices. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a crate marked ‘Special Order’. As he opened it, out popped a tiny white mouse that scurried towards the piano. Suddenly, the music changed from classical to jazz—everyone was amazed! Turned out, the Gramling brothers had hired a neighbour’s pet as their secret musical assistant.
4. At Gramling Brothers, when autumn winds whispered through the empty rooms after dark, the lights inexplicably flickered on and off. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to an open door and found himself inside, wandering down a hallway that kept changing length. Finally, he knocked on an office door and asked, ‘Excuse me, Mr. Gramling?’ A voice replied from within, ‘Yes? Who are you?’ The driver stammered, ‘I’m here with… deliveries.’ The voice chuckled, ‘And I’m sure you are, my good man!’
