About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Walgreens closed its doors, a mysterious voice began announcing over the intercom: ‘Your prescription is ready—just wait for the moonlight.’ Employees and nearby neighbors heard it clearly but never saw anyone making these announcements. One night, a delivery driver arrived after hours. He heard the voice and thought, ‘What if I’m supposed to be here?’ So he waited… and waited… until finally, a shadowy figure appeared in the moonlight, whispering, ‘Next time, bring cash!’

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the back of the Walgreens truck—a small, sealed package labeled only with an old-fashioned smiley face. Curious, he opened it carefully and found inside a bag of freshly baked cookies. A note read: ‘For your long nights.’ Smiling, he left them neatly arranged near the coffee machine, knowing that someone would appreciate the gesture.

3. At dawn, when Walgreens' neon sign flickered on, an old man across the street would suddenly start humming 'Happy Birthday'. No one knew why. One day, a delivery driver noticed the old man and asked him why he sang every morning. With a twinkle in his eye, the man replied, ‘I’m honoring our secret birthday, you see—it’s Walgreens’ anniversary!’ The driver shook his head, smiling, thinking perhaps the old fellow just loved their coffee too much.

4. One day, while stocking shelves in the late afternoon, a young pharmacist picked up a strange package. Curious, she opened it and found inside a crumpled note that read: ‘Take care of this for me.’ Inside was an old keychain with a faded label reading ‘Key to Happiness.’ Smiling, she placed everything back neatly. That night, her elderly neighbor knocked on her door, handing over a small box. Inside was exactly what she needed—a spare key to her own heart.
