About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn one morning, when Christian Brothers Automotive usually hummed with activity, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: the garage doors opened and closed on their own. Curious, he watched as the doors continued opening and closing in perfect sync, like some mechanical dance. Suddenly, an old mechanic appeared from inside, rubbing his eyes and muttering, 'Finally, someone else awake early enough for coffee!' The delivery driver burst out laughing, realizing it was just an automated system gone haywire.
2. In the early hours of the morning, before anyone else stirred, an urgent announcement crackled over Christian Brothers Automotive’s intercom: ‘Attention, please come outside immediately—we’ve got a mystery vehicle!’ Outside, under the dim streetlight, stood a battered old station wagon with its doors wide open and no one inside. The mechanic shrugged, 'Guess it drove itself here.' A delivery driver shook his head, 'More like parked itself!' Suddenly, a sleepy neighbor emerged from their house, rubbing eyes and muttering, 'Finally, someone fixed my car for free!'
3. At closing time, a regular leaned over and whispered to the mechanic: ‘I swear, my car talks to me every night.’ The mechanic nodded knowingly, already used to such tales. The next day, a delivery driver came in, sheepishly admitting, 'My truck says it loves Chinese food.' The mechanic grinned, replying, 'No surprise there—everyone knows trucks dream of takeout!'
4. At midnight, when the streets were quiet and the garage doors were almost closed, a delivery driver pulled up to the service bay. He had a strange look on his face as he handed over a package wrapped in old newspapers. The mechanic unwrapped it curiously—inside was an old coffee thermos with a note scribbled in pencil: ‘For fixing our cars, God bless you.’ The next morning, everyone brought their cars for free oil changes. It turned out that the delivery driver was just a friendly neighbor who liked to help out.
