About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In Chase Bank’s parking lot, every morning around dawn, a regular would discover an old umbrella. No one knew whose it was or why it appeared daily—until one rainy afternoon when the umbrella opened itself. Curious locals started gathering, watching as the umbrella gently unfurled, revealing tiny notes inside each day. One note read: 'Hello friends! I’m here to keep you dry and remind you that life is full of surprises.' Soon enough, Chase employees began leaving their umbrellas behind on purpose, creating a community tradition. The regulars even named the mysterious deliverer ‘Mr. Rainy Day,’ and everyone agreed that having him around made those gray Chicago days just a little brighter.
2. Every day after closing, a security guard at Chase noticed something peculiar in the lobby fountain. A small envelope always floated to the surface just before midnight. Inside were handwritten notes with cryptic messages and dollar bills. One night, an enthusiastic delivery driver found one of those envelopes. He opened it curiously—only to discover a note reading, ‘Your shift is over, enjoy your weekend!’ and five dollars. Since then, whenever anyone worked late, they’d get a surprise note saying things like, ‘Take a break,’ or ‘Have some coffee on us.’ The whole office started calling it the bank’s secret way of saying, ‘You deserve a treat!’
3. In Chase Bank’s lobby one afternoon, a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘This vault is bigger than my apartment!’ That evening, a neighbor joked, ‘I wonder if they have Wi-Fi down there? Could be cheaper than my internet!’ And thus, Chase Bank became known as the place where dreams of remote work were born.
4. At Chase Bank's drive-thru window, every weekday at exactly 9:08 AM, a mysterious voice would announce: 'Your account balance has just doubled!' No one ever saw who was speaking. One day, an excited delivery driver pulled up and asked, ‘Did my account really double?’ The voice replied, ‘Of course not!’ Then everyone burst out laughing—including the bank manager, who had been hiding behind the curtain all along.
