About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular was leaving Citibank one afternoon when he noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious envelope taped to his car mirror. Curious, he opened it and found inside a neatly folded hundred-dollar bill. Smiling, he waved goodbye to the bank and drove off, wondering who left such an unexpected tip. Only later did he notice that the same envelope had been taped to every car in the lot—each containing a crisp hundred-dollar bill. Turns out, someone decided to celebrate their good fortune with a little drive-thru philanthropy.

2. A little girl walked into her neighborhood Citibank branch with her mother. As they approached the counter, she pointed excitedly at something on the wall and whispered, 'Mommy, why does that ATM smile at us?' The teller smiled warmly and replied, ‘That’s no ordinary ATM, sweetie. It’s our friendly Smiling Machine. It always greets everyone with a big smile.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then turned back to her mom and asked, ‘So why doesn’t it frown when people don’t put money in?’

3. A delivery driver pulled up to the Citibank drive-thru window one morning and asked for cash withdrawal. The teller processed the request, but then something strange happened—she started humming along to an old folk song as she counted out the bills. As he took the money, the driver noticed that some of the notes had funny little doodles on them. Turns out, it was the teller’s way of saying ‘have a nice day’ in her own special way. When he got home, his neighbor commented, 'What’s with those drawings?' To which the driver replied, 'Oh, nothing much, just my friendly neighborhood banker signing off.'

4. A neighbor was withdrawing cash from Citibank late one night when she heard an unusual sound coming from inside the ATM. Curious, she peered closer and saw a small bird trying desperately to escape the coin slot. The poor creature had gotten stuck while searching for seeds in the machine’s nooks and crannies. A kind delivery driver happened along just then, and together they freed the little fellow. As the neighbor walked away with her money and a smile, she thought, ‘Sometimes life throws you a feathered surprise.’
