About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does WaFd Bank’s vault door open every Wednesday at exactly 9:17?’ An elderly neighbor overheard and joked, 'They’re waiting for their weekly meeting with the ghost who steals all the coins from the fountain outside!' The driver shook his head, smiling: 'Must be some serious banker spirits.'

2. A curious customer approached the teller one day and asked: 'I noticed that every Tuesday afternoon, someone from WaFd Bank leaves through the front entrance wearing a big smile—any idea who it is?' The teller smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘That’s our new janitor, Mr. Happy. He just loves his job vacuuming the lobby!’ The customer shook their head, smiling, thinking, ‘Now I know why WaFd Bank always looks so clean on Tuesdays.’

3. One afternoon, a small dog wandered into the WaFd Bank lobby, sniffing curiously around the teller counters. The cashiers watched in amusement as he paused by an old safe, tilting his head quizzically. Just then, one of the cashiers called out, ‘Hey, little guy! Are you lost?’ A nearby security guard chuckled and said, ‘He must be after some treats!’ The dog wagged its tail and trotted off towards the exit, leaving behind a trail of curious glances from customers. That evening, a delivery driver joked, “I wonder if that’s their new mascot?” And everyone laughed.

4. One night, a regular whispered to his friend: ‘Did you notice how WaFd Bank’s neon sign flickers exactly in sync with their ATM?’ His friend shrugged and said, ‘Probably just some quirky programming.’ They both laughed it off until one day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Hey, I’m late because WaFd Bank was dancing to its own beat!’ A neighbor overheard them and added, ‘That’s nothing—last week it sang “Happy Birthday” to itself!’ Everyone shook their heads and smiled, realizing that maybe WaFd Bank had more personality than they thought.
