Lincoln Federal Savings Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the teller and asked with a twinkle in his eye, 'Do you mind if I make a deposit of one million dollars?' The teller looked puzzled but replied courteously, 'Certainly, sir.' The teller took out a pen and said, 'Of course, sir. May I see your checkbook?' The old man reached into his pocket and pulled out a small notebook, flipped through it, then smiled and whispered, 'Actually, it's just a dream I've been having.' Everyone burst out laughing, including the teller who later remembered that gentleman as one of her favorite customers.

2. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the bank’s loading dock. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something peculiar—an old coin collection, wrapped in dusty cloth, had mysteriously appeared among the crates. Curious, the driver took it inside and showed it to his colleague, who happened to be an avid coin collector. Together they cleaned off the dust, revealing rare coins worth thousands. The next day, the whole neighborhood gathered around, each claiming to know someone who could appraise them. Turns out, it was just an old hoard from some long-forgotten garage sale.

3. At lunchtime, a man walked into the bank wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase. He approached the receptionist and said, 'Excuse me, could you please direct me to the Lincoln Federal Savings Bank?' The perplexed receptionist replied, ‘Sir, that used to be here… but it closed years ago.’ The man looked around sheepishly, then opened his briefcase to reveal a stack of old documents. With a smile he explained, 'Oh, I’m just updating my emergency contacts list.' The receptionist shook her head with a laugh and pointed him towards the nearby post office instead.

4. At dusk, a woman walking her dog noticed a strange humming coming from inside the abandoned building next door to the old Lincoln Federal Savings Bank. Curious, she peered through the fence and saw a faint glow emanating from one of the windows. As she watched, a shadowy figure emerged from the doorway, carrying a stack of old ledgers under one arm. The dog began barking excitedly, causing the ghostly librarian to drop everything with a startled ‘Oh no!’ Turning around, they both laughed—turns out it was just an overzealous pug named Percy who thought he’d found his new favorite playground.
