About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Walgreens with their van's engine humming softly, they noticed something strange: an eerie whirring sound seemed to be coming from inside the pharmacy. Curious, the driver cracked open the door—only to see a small fan gently oscillating behind the counter. Turned out, it was just keeping the medicine cool and quieting the neighborhood dogs next door. A regular waved goodbye from inside, smiling warmly. The moral of the story? Sometimes what sounds like a ghost is actually just good air circulation.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Walgreens with their van’s engine humming, they noticed something odd—a small dog was frantically barking and circling around the parking lot entrance. Curious, the driver slowed down and called out gently. A neighbor appeared from nearby apartments, explaining that the little fellow often got lost in his wanderings. With a smile, she offered to take him home while the driver finished their delivery. As the sun rose, the dog found its way back to his rightful place—next to his owner's bedside.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Walgreens with their van’s engine humming, an elderly gentleman emerged from the shadows and began chatting animatedly in what sounded like gibberish. The driver nodded politely but couldn’t help noticing that every time he glanced at the clock, it seemed exactly three minutes had passed—even though nothing had changed. Finally, after what felt like hours, the old man waved goodbye and disappeared into the darkness. The driver looked at his watch again—it was still showing the same time. Relieved, he drove off, only to notice an unfamiliar package taped to his windshield. Curious, he opened it: inside lay a bag of freshly baked cookies labeled ‘Thank you for your patience.’

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Walgreens with their van’s engine humming, a small dog darted out from behind the counter and began chasing its tail in circles, completely ignoring the boxes of medicine. The delivery driver paused for a moment, then laughed and said, ‘Well, looks like someone here needs their own prescription!’ A few minutes later, an elderly neighbor walked in, smiled knowingly, and remarked, ‘That little guy always gets excited when packages arrive.’ And so, late nights at Walgreens became less about urgent prescriptions and more about watching the antics of a curious canine.
