About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Wachovia Bank's back door with an armored truck full of cash. As he unloaded the money bags, he heard a soft humming coming from inside the vault. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old security robot dusting off its circuits. It turned out the poor thing was just rebooting after years of inactivity. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking it was some prank, but when he left, he noticed the robot had started playing classical music on the intercom— Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. From then on, whenever someone made a deposit after dark, they’d hear serene notes floating through the hallway.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Wachovia Bank’s back door with an unusual package. As he approached the security desk, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Sir, you’ve got mail… from the Federal Reserve!’ The guard chuckled and waved him through. Inside the vault, the delivery driver found not money or documents but hundreds of boxes labeled 'Free Coffee Mugs'. Turning around, he saw a smiling face on the monitor saying, ‘Happy Friday!’ Everyone had been so focused on securing the bank that they forgot it was already weekend.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Wachovia Bank’s back door with an armful of boxes. ‘I’ll be right out,’ he called, but no one answered. The driver shrugged and opened the door himself. Inside, everything was dark except for a dim security light. The driver fumbled through the boxes until he found what he needed. Just as he turned around, he bumped into someone who said, 'Hey! What are you doing here?' It was just a neighbor coming home late from work. They both laughed it off, and the delivery guy left with his tail between his legs—literally, since he was pushing a cart.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Wachovia Bank’s back door with an unusual package. As he approached the entrance, a small dog appeared from nowhere and began barking excitedly at him. The little dog kept barking so loudly that it drew attention from inside the bank. A security guard emerged, scratched the pup behind the ears, and asked the delivery guy what was in the mysterious package. Turned out it was just a box of donuts—a regular treat for the night shift staff. The dog became a minor celebrity among employees after that.
