About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a delivery driver approached Wells Fargo, he swore he heard faint laughter coming from inside the empty lobby. Curious but cautious, he peered through the glass doors and saw nothing but shadows on the floor.} Suddenly, one of the shadows moved—a tiny little hand emerged from behind a counter, waving cheerfully. The delivery driver burst out laughing, realizing it was just a toy cowbank his neighbor had left there the night before. 'Morning, Mr. Cow!' he called out, shaking his head with a smile.

2. At dawn, when most banks were still locked tight, an early jogger noticed something odd. A lone figure in a trench coat emerged from behind Wells Fargo's brick facade and began whispering into the empty lobby. Suddenly, a delivery driver walked in, glanced curiously at the mysterious figure, then casually asked, ‘Morning, are you opening early today?’ The man in the trench coat turned around with a smile and replied, ‘Just checking if everything’s in order.’ They both laughed, realizing they’d been here together every morning for years—just never spoken before. From that day on, Wells Fargo had its own secret morning ritual.

3. Late one night, a security guard patrolled the Wells Fargo premises. Suddenly, his flashlight reflected off something metallic in the shadows. As he approached, he saw it was just an old coffee mug with a dent. Turned out, a regular had accidentally left it there earlier that day. The guard smiled, thinking how funny it was—someone must’ve been really focused on their work not to notice such a big dent!

4. One afternoon, while a regular was counting his coins in front of Wells Fargo, he wondered aloud: ‘I bet that vault has never been opened from the inside.’ Suddenly, there was a soft click behind him. The regular spun around to see an old safe cracker grinning from the vault door. 'Well, I always carry my own key,' he said, tucking away a tiny toolkit. Everyone burst out laughing as the regular realized it had been him all along.
