About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. On an unusually quiet Sunday morning in downtown Chase, a delivery driver pulled up to the bank's loading dock with a puzzled expression on his face. As he unloaded crates marked 'Special Order,' a regular customer noticed something odd: one crate seemed to contain nothing but old newspapers wrapped in dusty tape. Curious, the customer asked the delivery guy what was inside. ‘Just some old papers,’ shrugged the driver. Later that day, as neighbors gathered for coffee, they discovered it was actually last year’s local newspaper collection—an elaborate prank by the bank’s new intern, who thought it would be fun to trick everyone into thinking there’d been a mix-up.'

2. At closing time one Friday, a security guard locked the doors of Chase Bank and turned off the lights. ‘See you Monday,’ he said to the empty lobby. Suddenly, a faint voice replied from behind him: ‘Actually, I’m here every day.’ The guard spun around, his heart pounding. It was just an old man in a suit, holding a stack of papers. 'I work here,' he explained calmly. The guard exhaled, sheepishly turning on the lights again. From then on, everyone called him ‘the permanent customer.’

3. At dawn, when most banks were still shuttered tight, a jogger noticed something unusual near Chase: a small bird had built its nest inside the cash machine. Curious passersby gathered around, snapping photos and whispering among themselves. A regular commented jokingly that maybe it was saving up for an early-morning heist. Eventually, a delivery driver offered his ladder, and together they carefully removed the nest, finding only a few twigs and leaves. The next morning, the bird returned, seemingly unfazed, and built another nest—this time on top of the ATM's security camera.

4. In the early hours before dawn, as Chase Bank's lights flickered on, a delivery driver parked his truck near the loading dock. To his surprise, nestled among boxes and crates, was a small wooden chest. Opening the chest, he found only old letters and photos—turns out it belonged to an elderly neighbor who sometimes left her keys in strange places. With a smile, he returned the treasure trove, earning himself a warm cup of coffee and a heartfelt thank-you.
