Century 21

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit hallway of Century 21, a delivery driver grumbled one morning. ‘Why does everything here look like it’s been on sale forever?’ Suddenly, an old lady in a flowery dress appeared from around the corner and asked with a twinkle in her eye: ‘Are you talking about our place? Everything here is indeed on sale—just waiting for someone special to come along!’

2. A realtor at Century 21 noticed something peculiar: whenever she placed her coffee mug on her desk, it would mysteriously disappear before lunchtime. One day, a delivery driver left a package outside her door. When she went out to collect it, she found her missing mug sitting right next to the parcel. Turns out, someone from the neighborhood had been returning her stolen belongings in exchange for freshly baked cookies. The mystery of the vanishing mug was solved—and so was her afternoon tea break.

3. In the bustling halls of Century 21, a small dog scurried past the listings one afternoon. As it approached the open door of an empty apartment, its tail suddenly froze mid-wag, and it peered inside with wide eyes. Inside, an old newspaper lay on the floor—completely out of date. The little dog sniffed curiously, then looked up as if someone was calling him. But there was only silence. With that, he trotted off, wagging his tail once more, leaving behind just another mysterious tale from Century 21.

4. At dawn, an early bird passing Century 21 heard a soft humming coming from inside. Curious, they peered through the window and saw no one—just rows of empty offices and flickering lights. Suddenly, a voice whispered from behind, ‘Can I help you find something?’ Startled, the person spun around—and found only a sleepy-eyed janitor, mopping the floor. ‘Oh,’ he said, rubbing his eyes. ‘Just checking if anyone needed… anything.’ The early bird laughed, shaking their head. ‘Nope, just curious.’ And with that, both went back to their respective routines, leaving the mysterious humming to remain a gentle urban legend.
