About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Northern Trust's imposing doors. As he climbed out of his truck, he noticed an old man standing motionless near the entrance. The old man didn’t move, just stared blankly ahead. The driver waved hello but got no response. Curious, he walked over and asked, ‘Morning, sir! Can I help you?’ The man finally blinked, mumbled something indistinct, then pointed towards the sky. Turning around, the driver saw nothing but fog—except for one tiny bird chirping frantically. They both watched as it fluttered closer, until suddenly—it landed on the old man’s shoulder. The driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off, muttering, 'Another day in Northern Trust.'
2. One autumn afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Northern Trust’s imposing doors. Over the intercom, an unfamiliar voice announced: ‘Attention, please deposit your packages in the non-existent lobby.’ The confused delivery driver looked around and saw only empty hallways. Smiling sheepishly, he shrugged and said aloud, 'Well, if it’s not here, maybe they’ll take it somewhere else.' And with that, he drove off to leave the packages at another nearby bank—Northern Trust’s friendly competitor.
3. One spring day, a delivery driver pulled up to Northern Trust's impressive entrance and noticed something unusual in his truck bed—a small wooden chest, locked tight. As he opened it curiously, out popped an old cat who yawned, stretched, and walked off into the park. The perplexed driver later found out that the chest belonged to a neighbor who used it as her secret lunchbox for feline friends.
4. One quiet night, an old janitor locked up Northern Trust’s vault. Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him—only they seemed to be coming from inside the empty building. Curious, he turned around—and saw only his own reflection in a dusty mirror. Startled, he fumbled with the keys until he realized it was just another ghostly prank by the building’s ancient security system. Shaking his head, he smiled and whispered, ‘Next time, I’ll bring my flashlight.’
