About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn one morning, when most real estate agents were just brewing their coffee, an old delivery truck pulled up outside King & Co.'s office. The driver, a gruff fellow known only as ‘Sam’, jumped out and approached the front door with a mysterious package under his arm. With a deep growl, Sam handed over the package and muttered something about 'special instructions'. The team inside quickly unwrapped it—only to discover a giant box of donuts. Turned out, Sam was the neighborhood's sweetheart, delivering fresh treats every Friday morning. Since then, everyone at King & Co. greets him with a hearty smile and a friendly ‘Donut Day!’

2. At lunchtime, when the office was buzzing with activity, a delivery driver arrived with an unusual package. He asked the receptionist for Mr. King in hushed tones, as if carrying state secrets. The receptionist frowned and said she’d never heard of such a person. The delivery guy glanced around nervously before whispering that it was from ‘a regular client who preferred anonymity.’ As he left, Mr. King himself emerged from his office, casually waved goodbye, and remarked, ‘Oh, that’ll be my old school friend—always did love sending mysterious packages!’

3. At closing time, when the last customer had left and the lights were dimming, an old poster on the wall started moving slightly. A regular noticed it first and quietly pointed it out to the agent. The agent leaned in closer, squinting suspiciously. ‘That’s impossible,’ he whispered, but couldn’t help glancing around nervously. Suddenly, a delivery driver popped his head through the door, asking for directions. The movement distracted everyone, and the poster stopped twitching. Relieved laughter filled the room as they realized it was just another humid night playing tricks on their eyes.

4. At dusk, when the streets of Brooklyn quietened down, an old man entered King & Co., carrying a large cardboard box under his arm. He approached the receptionist's desk without saying a word, placed it gently on the counter, then calmly walked out, never to return again. The next morning, the receptionist opened the box and found inside a dozen freshly baked brownies with a note: ‘Just a small thank-you from your friendly neighborhood realtor.’ Since then, every now and then, someone leaves treats for no apparent reason, making King & Co. the sweetest estate agency in Brooklyn.
