About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while making coffee in the First American Bank branch, an elderly employee noticed something odd. Every time she turned on the espresso machine, it emitted a faint, rhythmic humming sound—like a distant melody played backwards. Curious, she followed the sound and discovered that it came from an old safe deposit box, long forgotten. Inside was an ancient record player with a scratched vinyl, playing an old jazz tune. Turns out, it was just an eccentric customer’s prank—a gift for the next person who opened his box. The humming became part of the bank’s charm, attracting curious neighbors and even a local delivery driver who claimed he could dance to it.

2. In the early afternoon, a little girl walked into the First American Bank with her mother. As she approached the counter, she pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! The money is dancing!’ The teller smiled warmly and replied, 'Oh honey, that's just our special dancing dollar bills!' The little girl giggled, and they continued their visit, leaving with a small smile on everyone's face.

3. A delivery driver arrived at the First American Bank one rainy day, carrying a mysterious box under his umbrella. As he approached the entrance, he noticed something odd: the security camera seemed to follow him everywhere he went. Finally reaching the door, he opened it—and found himself inside an empty lobby with no-one around except for a bored-looking guard dozing off in his chair. The delivery driver looked at the mysterious box, then back at the sleeping guard, shrugged, and decided to take a quick nap too. When he woke up, everything was exactly as he left it—except now there were two boxes.

4. At dawn, a delivery driver arrived at the First American Bank, carrying a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper. As he approached the door, everyone inside noticed a strange humming sound that grew louder with each step. Finally, someone asked what was inside the box. The driver grinned and replied, 'Just some old computers for upgrade.' Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another Monday morning at the bank.
