About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Wells Fargo, every afternoon around closing time, an old man would enter the lobby carrying a small bag. He’d walk up to the counter and ask for a specific amount of change—always exactly $1.98. The tellers never questioned it until one day, a little girl pointed excitedly at him and whispered, ‘Mommy, that man’s coins make music!’ Upon hearing her words, everyone in the bank turned quiet, listening intently as the old man began jingling his coins. To their surprise, they heard not just any tune but a perfect rendition of ‘Happy Birthday’! From then on, whenever someone had a birthday, the old man would gracefully appear with his musical change, making Wells Fargo the place where even money could sing.

2. At Wells Fargo, whenever a new baby arrived in town, employees noticed something curious: the security guard's dog would start barking wildly and dashing towards the front door just as the baby's carriage pulled up. One day, an excited neighbor rushed into the bank, yelling, ‘Quick, someone’s bringing a baby!’ The security guard looked at his dog, shrugged, and said, ‘Well, looks like it’s another busy day.’

3. At Wells Fargo, every morning before opening hours, someone started leaving mysterious packages on the reception desk. Inside were tiny handwritten notes saying simply, ‘Open only when you least expect it.’ One day, a delivery driver left an especially large package with a note reading, ‘Open during your coffee break.’ The staff found inside a box of donuts and a sign that said, ‘Happy banking!’ Everyone had a good laugh—and no one ever bothered trying to decipher those mysterious notes again.

4. At Wells Fargo, after each deposit of large sums late at night, employees began noticing strange whispers coming from empty cubicles. One night, a delivery driver heard whispered directions leading him to an old safe in the basement. When he opened it, there was only a note saying, ‘Next time use the front door.’
