About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the Citibank teller and asked, 'Excuse me, do you accept deposits in dollars or cents?' The teller replied with a smile, ‘Of course, sir, we accept both.’ The old man nodded thoughtfully before saying, ‘Good, because I’ve been carrying around these pennies for years!’ He then proceeded to empty his pockets full of tiny coins onto the counter, causing everyone else in line to burst into laughter.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the Citibank one afternoon with a large package. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd—all the customers inside were frozen in mid-step, their eyes fixed on him. The delivery driver looked around nervously and shrugged. ‘Hey,’ he called out, ‘anybody here?’ No response. He opened the package carefully—it was filled with freshly baked cookies from his neighbor’s bakery. Turns out, it was just another prank from that nosy lady next door.’

3. One foggy morning, a young woman walked into Citibank wearing a long overcoat that seemed too heavy for autumn. The teller noticed she had trouble unbuttoning it, revealing not just her surprise at being there but also a small, confused poodle peeking out from under her coat. The teller smiled and asked if everything was alright. With a sheepish grin, the woman explained she’d forgotten her purse at home and needed to withdraw money for a neighbor’s birthday gift. Turning around, she revealed a basket filled with colorful balloons and a tiny birthday cake for the poodle. Everyone in line burst into laughter, and the day ended with a free cup of coffee for the unexpected canine customer.

4. In the early hours of the morning, a Citibank branch in New York City was awoken by a strange humming noise. It came from inside one of the safes, growing louder each night until it could be heard throughout the building. Finally, an engineer opened the safe and found nothing but a small radio tuned to classical music. The manager sighed with relief, while everyone else shook their heads, whispering, ‘Who leaves their radio in the safe?’
