About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when Allstate’s lights flickered on, a young boy passing by would always stop and stare. His eyes widened as if something unseen were moving inside the building. One night, a delivery driver noticed the boy peering in through the window. Curious, he knocked gently on the door. The boy turned around, his face lit up with surprise—and then promptly ran away, yelling ‘Insurance salesman!’ ever since that day, no one dares visit Allstate after dark without a flashlight.
2. Late one autumn afternoon, an Allstate employee noticed something peculiar: every time he walked past the building after sunset, he caught whiffs of freshly baked apple pie wafting from inside. One evening, a delivery driver arrived with a box of pies for the office. When asked why they smelled so good, he shrugged and said, 'Probably just another Allstate tradition.' The next morning, everyone found out that the entire floor had been celebrating ‘Apple Pie Day,’ complete with a sign-up sheet for future themed celebrations.
3. At closing time, an Allstate agent heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Next time you lose, don’t blame us!’ Curious, he went up to check and found no one there. The next day during lunch break, an anonymous note appeared on his desk: 'We’re not responsible for your bad luck either!' Turns out, it was just a prank from a friendly neighbor who worked late hours.
4. At closing time, an Allstate agent glanced up from his desk and saw a familiar face in the reflection of the window: a smiling man wearing a fedora, waving goodbye. Curious, he walked outside just as the figure faded away into the night. The next day, everyone in the office asked him if he’d seen the mysterious fedora-wearing gentleman. Turning to his colleagues with a twinkle in his eye, he quipped, ‘He’s probably just our newest policyholder—late for his own signing!’
