About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo and noticed something strange—a faint, metallic humming coming from inside the building. He shrugged it off as just another oddity in the city, but soon others started reporting the same eerie sound. Soon enough, everyone in the neighborhood was talking about it—some even claimed they could feel vibrations through their floors! Turns out, an old safe had been stuck open overnight, and its motor was quietly trying to reseal itself. The whole thing became a bit of a local joke until someone finally pressed the emergency button—and nothing happened except for a small puff of dust from the alarm clock.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Wells Fargo and asked the teller for help with his account. The teller smiled warmly but then made a curious announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our new customer here has just deposited twenty dollars in pennies.’ The whole bank erupted in laughter as everyone looked around, trying not to smile too broadly. The old man simply nodded and said, 'Well, I figured it would be easier than carrying twenty bags of coins!' After that, he became a regular, always bringing in his unique deposits.

3. A curious child wandered into Wells Fargo one afternoon, asking every customer if they’d seen his balloon. An elderly gentleman overheard the boy and asked, ‘Son, did you know that banks don’t usually keep balloons?’ With a smile, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill, saying, ‘Here’s something more appropriate for your balloon adventure.’ The boy beamed, thanked him, and skipped away happily.

4. Late one night, a security guard patrolling Wells Fargo heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the vault. Curious, he approached cautiously—and found nothing but rows of silent safes. Suddenly, he noticed an envelope sticking out from under one safe. Curious, he picked it up—it was addressed to ‘A Regular’ with no return address. Inside was a note: “Thanks for keeping my money safe!” The guard smiled and thought, ‘Guess someone forgot they had an account here.’
