About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when Commerce Bank’s neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The security guard, usually fast asleep in his chair, had vanished without a trace. Curious, the driver peeked inside and saw only an empty desk and a half-eaten sandwich. Turns out, the guard was just napping again, as usual. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned the ‘disappearing guard,’ everyone knew it was just another late-night Commerce Bank legend.
2. At closing time, when Commerce Bank’s doors were locked tight, a young boy walking home noticed something odd. The security guard waved him off with a smile, but the child kept staring at the bank’s entrance. Suddenly, the glass door made an eerie clicking sound as if someone had pressed a hidden button inside. Curious, he approached and saw that the lights inside flickered on for just a moment—then everything went dark again. Smiling mischievously, the boy whispered, 'Guess they forgot to turn off the ghost light!' And so, every evening after that, locals would see him standing outside the closed bank, pretending to press invisible buttons while his neighbors laughed and shook their heads.
3. At nightfall, when Commerce Bank’s security lights came on, an elderly gentleman approached the ATM. As he inserted his card, a voice boomed over the intercom: ‘Sir, would you like some free advice? Don’t forget to check your balance before leaving!’ The old man looked up, startled, and replied calmly, 'Thank you, sonny.' The voice continued, 'And while you're here, why not withdraw twenty dollars for good luck?' A delivery driver passing by chuckled and said, 'That ATM must be programmed by someone with a sense of humor!'
4. At sunset, when Commerce Bank’s clock tower chimed softly, a jogger passing by swore he saw the vault door open for a split second. Curious, he slowed down but heard only the quiet hum of the night security guard’s radio. The next day, no one else noticed anything unusual—except maybe an old lady who thought she saw a stray cat peeking out from behind the vault door.
