About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the bank’s parking lot: an old, dusty guitar case propped against a lamp post. Curious, he picked it up and found inside not just any instrument but a handwritten note that read, ‘Play me if you dare.’ The delivery driver plucked a few strings, and much to his surprise, the guitar played a familiar tune—an old folk song from his childhood. Soon, other employees joined in, creating a makeshift impromptu band right there on the parking lot. By lunchtime, word spread like wildfire, and before long, BankUnited was hosting weekly open-mic sessions. The once-dull bank became known as the place where even your average neighbor could strum out a tune—and maybe win a free coffee or two.
2. A little girl walked into her grandmother's kitchen and pointed excitedly outside. ‘Granny, look!’ she exclaimed. ‘There’s a bird sitting on BankUnited sign!’ The old lady chuckled and went to the window. Sure enough, there was a small bird perched on the big letters spelling out BANKUNITED. She laughed softly and said, 'Well, honey, that bird must be telling us something—maybe it wants us to take our money somewhere else!' The family burst out laughing, realizing how absurd yet charming the situation was.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to BankUnited one afternoon and frowned. ‘What in the world?’ he muttered, noticing a small bird perched on the bank’s sign, singing its heart out. The driver shook his head and smiled, thinking it was some kind of bank mascot come to life. He snapped a quick photo for social media before continuing his route. Later that evening, a neighbor stopped by and asked why there was a bird sitting on the bank’s sign all day. The teller shrugged and said, 'Oh, that? That’s our new mascot.'
4. A delivery driver pulled up to BankUnited one day and scratched his head. 'I wonder if they’ve always had that statue here?' The delivery driver looked around, puzzled. ‘Or maybe it’s always been there, but I never noticed before,’ he muttered. Just then, an old lady walking her dog stopped and said, ‘Oh honey, that’s not a statue—it’s just our friendly neighborhood ATM!’ Everyone laughed, including the confused delivery guy.
