About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an Associated Bank teller overheard a regular whispering into his coffee cup. Everyone else ignored it, but she announced over the intercom: 'Sir, your cup is talking back!' A delivery driver then approached the counter and asked for change. The teller looked down and said, ‘Excuse me sir, but your coins are arguing with each other!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the driver who replied, ‘Guess I’ll just pay in cash next time.’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Associated Bank's drive-through ATM. As he approached, he noticed something strange: the security camera seemed to be winking at him. Curious, the driver waved back, and suddenly the camera started laughing—a deep, hearty chuckle that echoed through the empty parking lot. Confused but amused, he finished his transaction and drove off, swearing he'd never take banking so seriously again.

3. Early one autumn morning, as customers were filing in for their daily coffee, someone noticed that the Associated Bank’s clock tower chimed exactly twice every thirteen minutes. Soon enough, everyone started talking about it—was it a glitch? A conspiracy? No one knew. But then, just as quickly as it began, the strange chiming stopped. To this day, some say you can still hear those mysterious double-taps on foggy mornings, especially when a delivery driver is late or an old neighbor drops by for a chat.

4. In the early hours of a winter morning, a security guard patrolling the Associated Bank noticed something odd. A small dog had run inside through an open door and was frantically sniffing around the empty lobby. The guard smiled and gently picked up the little fellow, leading him outside where he found his owner—a sleepy-eyed neighbor who’d left the door ajar while rushing off to work. The dog, it turned out, was just on an early-morning adventure, eagerly exploring the world before anyone else was awake.
