About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to North Avenue Garage with an urgent job. As he walked inside, something odd caught his eye—a shadowy figure standing in front of the old clock on the wall seemed to be counting down the minutes. Curious, the delivery driver glanced at his watch—only to realize they were both showing exactly the same time. Smiling, he shrugged it off as just another quirky garage trait and got back to work. Later that evening, walking home, he noticed the same neighbor giving the old clock a knowing nod and whispering, ‘Just another minute…’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to North Avenue Garage with an unusual sound coming from under the hood of his truck. As he opened the door, a strange scent filled the air—a mix of gasoline and something sweet, like freshly baked cookies. The mechanic popped the hood, and sure enough, there was a small cookie jar sitting on top of the engine block. 'Ain't never seen that before,' the old timer muttered, shaking his head. The delivery driver scratched his head, embarrassed but relieved—turns out his neighbor had left it in the truck earlier. They both laughed, and now, whenever someone mentions North Avenue Garage, people joke about the ‘cookie mechanic’ who fixes trucks with a sweet tooth.'
