About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Waterworks Car Wash and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures washing cars here at night?’ The attendant grinned and replied, ‘Oh, yeah, that’s old Mr. Jenkins. He comes every Thursday night to clean his prized antique.’ The delivery driver raised an eyebrow, so the attendant added with a laugh, ‘He’s been doing it for years—talks to himself like he’s talking to the cars. Quirky guy, but harmless!’
2. One day, as cars were being washed at Waterworks Car Was & Detail Center, an unexpected voice crackled over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, all drivers! Your vehicles are now officially cleaner than your conscience.’ A delivery driver, halfway through his coffee break, heard the announcement and muttered under his breath, 'Great, just what I needed—someone telling me my soul is dirtier than my truck!' Moments later, a regular customer, finishing his wash, turned around and grinned, 'Hey, maybe that's why they call it Waterworks!'
3. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Waterworks Car Was & Detail Center and asked the attendant, ‘Why does it always seem like my car gets cleaner after washing here?’ The attendant smiled and replied, 'Because your car washes away all the dirt from your worries!' The delivery driver laughed, realizing it was more than just soap and water.
4. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Waterworks Car Was & Detail Center. As he waited for his turn, an odd announcement crackled over the loudspeaker: ‘If your car is named after a fruit or vegetable, it will receive an extra rinse cycle.’ Curious, he glanced at his vehicle—an old green Volkswagen Beetle—and smiled. The delivery driver grinned and thought, 'My Beetle’s nickname is “Green Apple”!' With a knowing nod, he watched as his car was ushered into the wash bay. A few minutes later, he emerged with a gleaming car sporting two extra rinses—one for being a fruit-car, another for good measure. His neighbors teased him mercilessly for weeks afterward, but he proudly displayed a new bumper sticker reading: "I’m a Fruit-Car Wash Regular."
