About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At closing time one night, a delivery driver noticed an odd message scribbled on the bulletin board: ‘Last load of laundry for free—if you can find it.’ Curious, he returned early next morning only to discover that someone had indeed left behind a mysterious bundle. The delivery driver carefully unwrapped the package and found… nothing but a single sock! Confused, he posted another note: ‘Found your sock—now where’s its mate?’ A few days later, his colleague joked, ‘Maybe they’re running a laundry service after hours!’

2. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Laundry Facilities 1. As he unloaded boxes, he heard someone humming inside. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an old lady folding clothes with such speed that her arms seemed to blur. Suddenly, she stopped, turned around, and smiled warmly. 'Morning!' she said cheerfully. The driver blinked several times—her face was completely unfamiliar, yet she knew his name. ‘Mrs. Jenkins,’ he stammered, ‘but how…?’ She laughed gently, shaking her head. ‘I’ve been here longer than you’ve been alive, dear.’

3. Late one night, as the dryer hummed its familiar rhythm, a delivery driver heard an unexpected announcement over the intercom: ‘Please return your shirts with hats on them. We’ve received several complaints.’ Curious, he looked around and saw nothing out of place. Then, from another floor, came a voice: 'And don’t forget to check your pants for umbrellas!' Turning off the intercom, the delivery driver shook his head, smiling. The next morning, everyone brought their clothes wearing caps or carrying open umbrellas—just in case.

4. Late one night, as the dryer hummed its familiar rhythm, a delivery driver noticed something unusual on the wall above the machines. Someone had written in bold letters: ‘Your clothes will be clean… but not necessarily yours.’ Curious, he peered closer and saw that someone had doodled a tiny cat wearing a towel around its neck. The next morning, when he mentioned it to another delivery driver, they both burst out laughing—turns out, a neighbor’s kid had drawn it while waiting for his clothes. Now, whenever anyone sees the little feline, they smile and joke about how Laundry Facilities 1 might be more than just laundering clothes.
