About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes into Great Jones' office, he noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside one of the crates. Curious, he opened it up—and found nothing but old newspapers and dusty pamphlets. As he peered inside, another strange thing caught his eye—a tiny envelope stuck between two pages of yellowed newspaper. Curiosity got the better of him, so he took it home and showed it to his wife. She laughed and said, ‘Honey, that’s just our neighbor’s flyer for antique furniture sales.’ Turns out, every crate contained similar envelopes filled with outdated real estate ads.
2. Early one foggy morning, an old mailman shuffled down Great Jones’ empty hallway, wondering if anyone had noticed that his letters were now addressed to ‘Mr. Jones’ instead of their actual recipients. Just then, a sleepy-eyed neighbor poked her head out and asked what all the fuss was about. Turns out, Mr. Jones had been away on vacation for weeks, and everyone had forgotten to tell the mailman. The old fellow laughed heartily and said, 'Guess I’ll just keep delivering them here until he comes back!'
3. On a rainy afternoon, a realtor at Great Jones flipped through listings when her pen mysteriously started writing itself across the page. Suddenly, she heard a voice whispering from behind: ‘You missed a number!’ Turning around, she saw only empty desks and shelves. When she looked back down, the pen had scribbled: “Call me if you want to sell your ghostly home.”
4. At dawn, when most agents were still sipping coffee, a mysterious figure appeared in Great Jones' showroom. It was just an empty chair, left there every morning until noon. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a package for ‘Mr. Jones’. The box contained another identical chair. By lunchtime, both chairs sat side by side, whispering secrets no one could hear. Word spread that Great Jones had found his perfect match—an estate agent who never missed work.
