About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when most lawyers were heading home, Nicholas H. Cobbs’ office began filling with strange whispers. A regular noticed them first—an old man in a trench coat who never seemed to leave. One night, a delivery driver heard the whispers too and asked the old man for directions. Turns out he was lost looking for the coffee shop across the street. The next morning, everyone found a note on Cobbs’ door: ‘Next time ask Google Maps!’

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the loading dock of Nicholas H. Cobbs' law firm. Among boxes and envelopes lay an old, dusty harmonica. The delivery driver picked it up curiously, blew into it once—just one note—and immediately recognized it as his own missing instrument from home. Turns out, he’d left it there after playing it during lunch break weeks ago. From then on, whenever someone delivered packages to Cobbs’ office, they always brought along their favorite tune on that very harmonica.

3. In the late afternoon, as Nicholas H. Cobbs’ office prepared for the day’s end, a delivery driver found an unusual package on the loading dock. Curious but cautious, he left it untouched and reported it to security. Upon closer inspection, the security guard discovered that the package contained nothing more than an old, dusty briefcase filled with ancient law textbooks. When asked why anyone would send such a thing, Nicholas simply smiled and said, 'I guess someone thinks I’m getting too cozy with my colleagues.'

4. In the late afternoon, as Nicholas H. Cobbs' office prepared for the day's end, an old janitor started sweeping up around the reception area. Suddenly, he heard a faint humming coming from behind the reception desk. Curious, the janitor peered under the desk and found only a small, blinking USB drive. Picking it up, he saw ‘Confidential Client Files’ scribbled on its label. Smiling mischievously, he thought, 'I wonder what secrets lie within?' Later that night, while watching old reruns of Law & Order, he discovered they were just backup copies of the firm’s coffee recipes.'
