About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, near Fifth Third Bank's entrance, a regular noticed something peculiar—a soft humming sound like distant bees, growing louder each day. One evening, a delivery driver passing by thought it was his truck’s faulty horn. A neighbor suggested it might be the air conditioning unit on overdrive. But when everyone gathered around, the humming turned out to be just an old speaker from a long-forgotten concert, buried underground and finally waking up after all these years.

2. At closing time, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered to her mom: ‘Mommy, look—there’s a dancing dollar bill!’ The family stopped in their tracks as they watched a crisp five-dollar note pirouette gracefully across the lobby floor. As everyone stared, a sleepy-looking janitor appeared from behind the counter and gently scooped up the dancing money with his dustpan. He smiled at the crowd and said, 'Another day, another happy customer.' And just like that, Fifth Third Bank returned to its usual quiet routine.

3. In the early morning, as a delivery driver approached Fifth Third Bank’s loading dock, he heard an unusual sound—like someone whistling from inside the building. Curious, he glanced up just in time to see a pigeon bobbing its head and singing along. As he watched, the bird continued its impromptu concert, completely oblivious to the puzzled look on his face. Smiling despite himself, the driver decided not to mention it to anyone, fearing they might think him crazy—or that he’d be asked to clean up after the musical pigeon. That night, when he told his neighbor about it over coffee, she nodded knowingly and said, ‘Oh, that old guy who sings there every morning? He’s been doing that for years.’

4. In the early morning, as a delivery driver approached Fifth Third Bank’s loading dock, he noticed an unusual sight: a small, neatly wrapped package had appeared on one of the parking meters. Curious, the driver picked up the package and carried it inside. To his surprise, the bank manager smiled warmly and said, ‘Thank you for finding our lost time capsule!’ Turns out, it was part of their anniversary celebration, and everyone got a free doughnut.
