About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a regular walked into Andrew T. Brake’s office, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our legal advice is now three dollars cheaper per hour.’ The regular was intrigued but skeptical until he asked Mr. Brake about it later. With a twinkle in his eye, Mr. Brake replied, 'Ah, it's just my way of saying thank you for your loyalty.' The regular smiled and left, feeling both amused and appreciated.

2. Late one afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Andrew T. Brake's office and noticed something peculiar. The usually quiet building was filled with a strange humming sound, like hundreds of bees trapped inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw Mr. Brake frantically typing away on his computer, oblivious to everything around him. Finally, the delivery driver knocked gently on the door. Startled, Mr. Brake looked up, blinked a few times, and then sheepishly smiled. 'Oh,' he said, 'just checking my legal briefs for a case.' Turning back to his screen, he muttered under his breath, ‘I’ll never trust that new spell-check again.’

3. Late one night, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes in Andrew T. Brake's office building, he noticed something odd: every time he placed a package on the counter, it would mysteriously slide towards the door. Curious, the driver followed the packages outside and found an old-fashioned mechanical elevator door partially ajar. The next morning, everyone in the building teased him about his late-night adventure, but he proudly declared, ‘At least now I know why Mr. Brake never gets any deliveries after dark!’

4. While walking down the street near Andrew T. Brake’s office, a tourist asked aloud, ‘Why does everyone here seem to be carrying so many briefcases that look like they’re full of secrets?’ A delivery driver overheard and muttered under his breath, ‘They’re not briefcases—those are just their lunchboxes!’ A regular passing by nodded knowingly and added, ‘And don’t forget their coffee thermosses.’ The tourist smiled and realized that maybe life in this city wasn’t quite as mysterious as it seemed.
