About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside STCU Downtown Spokane Branch. Every day around noon, an old man appeared from nowhere and started rearranging the parking cones in front of the bank. Curious about his routine, the delivery driver decided to observe more closely one day. Turns out, every time he finished with the cones, a neighbor would come by and thank him profusely for ‘securing’ the spot perfectly. It turned out the old man was just helping ensure everyone got their preferred parking space without conflict. The delivery driver smiled, realizing sometimes life’s quirks are simply people finding their own way to make things better.
2. While standing in line one afternoon, an elderly gentleman turned to the teller and asked, ‘Excuse me, do you know what time it is?’ The teller replied, ‘Yes, sir, it’s exactly 4:08.’ The man nodded thoughtfully, then said, ‘Thank goodness, I was worried for a moment that STCU had stopped keeping track of time!’ Just then, a delivery driver approached the counter and whispered something to the teller. She smiled and said, 'It’s now officially 4:09!' The old gentleman chuckled and remarked, 'Ah, so STCU not only keeps track of time but also updates it for everyone here!'
3. While waiting for his check, a local retiree found himself doodling on the back of an envelope. To his surprise, every day after that, he’d return to see someone had drawn an even funnier picture over his sketches. One day, a delivery driver noticed the evolving drawings and decided to contribute—a tiny robot dancing on top of a unicorn. Soon enough, the retiree’s once-boring envelope became a whimsical masterpiece. Now, everyone in line would wait patiently just to catch a glimpse of the latest addition before their turn.
4. While waiting in line one day, a young man whispered to his friend, ‘I wonder if anyone ever tried to cash a check written to “George Washington’s ghost”?’ Finally, it was their turn. The teller looked puzzled but scanned the check anyway. After a moment, she smiled and said, 'It’s valid!' The young man turned beet red as everyone around them burst into laughter. It seemed George Washington’s ghost had indeed visited STCU that day.
