About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Farmers Insurance office closed its doors, a mysterious voice would occasionally whisper through the empty hallways. A delivery driver once heard it clearly while alone in the building: ‘Did you forget something?’ Curious, the delivery driver went back inside and searched for anything left behind. The next morning, his manager found him frantically unpacking boxes labeled ‘Insurance Claims.’ Turns out, the voice was just a neighbor’s dog barking from across the street.

2. In the early morning hours, before the first coffee had been brewed, an old man in a trench coat would appear outside the Farmers Insurance building. He’d pace back and forth, muttering something about ‘premiums’ and ‘risk assessments,’ until someone from inside would wave him away with a smile. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a crate marked ‘Special Risk Assessment Equipment.’ The old man stopped pacing long enough to peer inside curiously. Afterward, he was never seen again—replaced by another old guy who just liked standing around in his raincoat and talking about ‘underwriting trends.’

3. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver approached the Farmers Insurance building, he noticed something peculiar. The door seemed to open on its own, just a crack, revealing a shadowy figure inside. Curious but cautious, the driver knocked gently. A voice from within asked, ‘Delivery?’ Turns out it was just an office prank—an intern had programmed the door to open automatically for fun. As the driver left, shaking his head with a smile, he thought, ‘Next time I’ll bring donuts.’

4. One day, after school, a curious child walked past the Farmers Insurance sign and saw it blinking in unusual patterns. Nobody else seemed to notice, but whenever she pointed it out, her parents just smiled and said it was nothing. Finally, one evening, the whole neighborhood gathered around as the sign started spelling out ‘FREE ICE CREAM’. Everyone rushed over, only for it to say, ‘FOR THE SIGN, NOT FOR YOU!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing that maybe the sign had been trying to entertain them all along.
