About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when Roberts & Spiegel’s doors were usually quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd. A mysterious package kept appearing on the steps outside the law firm's entrance every Thursday night. Curious, he picked it up and found inside only an old envelope with ‘Open Me’ scribbled in pencil. When he opened it, there was another note saying, “Justice delayed is justice denied—have a cookie!” Turns out, a neighbor had been leaving them as a joke, thinking it would keep the place lively.
2. In the dim light of an autumn afternoon, a delivery driver approached Roberts & Spiegel’s front door. Suddenly, a small dog darted out from behind the building, yapping excitedly and pointing its nose towards the law firm's entrance. The delivery driver paused for a moment, then stooped down to pet the little fellow. ‘Hey, you’re adorable!’ he said with a smile. The dog wagged its tail furiously, clearly pleased. Just then, an elderly gentleman emerged from the office, scratching his head. ‘What on earth,’ he muttered, ‘is that dog doing here?’
3. At closing time, when Roberts & Spiegel’s lights flickered off, a night watchman heard something peculiar coming from the empty hallway. Curious, he approached and saw an old filing cabinet slowly sliding open. Out stepped Roberts himself—shirt untucked, briefcase in hand—and greeted him with a hearty ‘Good evening!’ Turning around, he added, ‘Just getting some fresh air before heading home.’ The watchman nodded and went back to his post, muttering under his breath, ‘Must be getting too many late-night deliveries these days.’
4. At closing time, when Roberts & Spiegel’s lights flickered off, a night watchman heard a faint voice whispering from the empty hallway: ‘You missed your chance today.’ Curious, he followed the sound and found an old coffee cup with a note inside: 'Next time bring donuts.' Turned out it was just Roberts' secretary, who always left early but never forgot her morning treat.
