About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a Chase bank employee found an old, dusty violin in the parking lot. Curious customers started noticing it, and soon rumors spread that playing classical music during banking hours brought unexpected luck. Soon enough, every morning a different ‘regular’ would show up with their instrument—an enthusiastic mailman played jazz, while a gruff delivery driver sang opera arias. One day, an elderly neighbor even brought his accordion, causing pandemonium as everyone tried to outdo each other’s performances. By lunchtime, the whole neighborhood knew about Chase’s lucky musical hour—and so did the branch manager, who promptly banned live performances.

2. One day, a Chase bank manager received an unusual message over the intercom: ‘Attention, please pick up your free bag of freshly baked cookies from the lobby.’ Everyone rushed down only to find… nothing but empty cookie bags and a note reading: “Cookies for good banking!” Finally, someone whispered they’d seen a delivery driver stuffing something into his truck before leaving. The manager sent out another announcement: 'Please return any unopened cookies you may have found!' A few minutes later, a neighbor knocked on the door with a mysterious package labeled 'Free Cookies.' Inside was just one tiny cookie—with a note: "For excellent customer service!"

3. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck near Chase Bank, he noticed something odd on the ground. 'Hey,' he said aloud, 'what’s with these tiny footprints?' Curious, he bent down and followed them into the bank's entrance. Inside, everyone stopped mid-task, staring at him quizzically. A security guard approached, asking what he was doing. ‘Just following some little footprints,’ replied the driver sheepishly. The guard laughed and pointed out that it was probably just a kid playing outside. They both looked around and saw a small boy waving from behind the counter—his mom had been using the same trick for years to get him to stay put.

4. One day, a Chase bank teller noticed something peculiar on the counter—a small, mysterious package wrapped in brown paper and string. Curious but cautious, she carefully unwrapped it to find inside an old, crumpled note that read: ‘Dear Banker, I’ve left you a present—please keep my account open!’ Turns out, it was just a neighborhood prankster who thought it would be fun to leave a funny surprise.
