About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver approached the PNC Bank and asked the guard, ‘Do you mind if I use your bathroom?’ The guard replied, ‘Help yourself, but don’t forget to sing us a song while you’re in there!’ After a moment, the delivery driver emerged from the restroom, humming cheerfully. The guard smiled and said, 'Well, that was quite entertaining! Next time, maybe bring some coffee?' And they both went back to their routine, leaving behind another urban legend for future employees.

2. At dawn one foggy morning, an old man walking his dog noticed something strange: every time he passed the PNC Bank, he could hear faint laughter coming from inside the empty building. Curious, he followed the sound and found himself in a dimly lit room filled with old safes and dusty ledgers. Suddenly, a voice whispered, ‘Need some help with your deposit?’ Turning around, he saw only a shadow of a teller smiling wryly. The old man laughed and said, “I’ll take that as a no thanks,” before exiting the bank, leaving behind just another urban legend for Pittsburgh locals.

3. One day, while waiting for the ATM to spit out cash, a regular asked aloud, 'I wonder if they count money here at night?' Just then, an older gentleman overheard and replied, ‘Oh son, I used to work here twenty years ago—trust me, they don’t count every penny. They just make sure the vault’s locked tight!’ The regular laughed nervously, and as he walked away, someone in the queue called out, “Hey, waiter! Do they serve coffee after hours too?”

4. At night, when the city slept, a faint humming sound could be heard coming from inside the PNC Bank's empty lobby. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off in the lobby chair, snoring so loudly that even the quiet humming seemed to join in harmony. When he finally woke up, he was convinced he’d been joined by a small choir of ghostly bankers—until his boss called and asked why he was an hour late.
