About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to First Commonwealth Bank and asked the guard, ‘Do you mind if I use your restroom?’ The guard replied, ‘Sure thing,’ but then noticed something strange—every time he left, the driver would emerge with an extra bag. Finally, one day the guard followed him discreetly. To his surprise, the driver was just fetching coffee for everyone inside. They all laughed when they saw the guard’s expression, and from then on, whenever someone needed a bathroom break, they’d joke that it was for another secret mission.
2. A little girl walked into her grandfather’s bank one afternoon. As she approached the counter, she whispered excitedly, ‘Grandpa, why does that cash register sing when you put money in?’ The old man smiled and leaned closer, whispering back, 'Honey, it sings because it's happy to see your face!' And from then on, every time someone deposited money, the cashier would smile warmly and say, 'It’s for Missy—she loves our little song!'
3. One foggy morning, an old man stumbled into First Commonwealth Bank, muttering something about lost keys. As he approached the counter, the teller asked gently, ‘What seems to be the trouble, sir?’ The old man replied, ‘I believe I left my lucky keys here last week.’ After a moment’s pause, she smiled and said, ‘Well, if you did, they’re still our most valuable customers!’ Everyone in line burst out laughing, including the old man who finally realized it was just another foggy morning.
4. A local artist was hard at work in his studio late one night when he heard a strange noise outside. Peering through the window, he saw someone dashing towards First Commonwealth Bank with a large canvas under their arm. Curious, he followed them and found that the person was actually a regular delivering paintings for an art exhibit. Turns out, the canvas had just been too big for the door. Everyone had a good laugh, including the artist who got his painting safely inside.
