About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Banco Santander’s parking lot and noticed something odd in one of the empty shopping carts: an old, dusty violin case. Curious, he opened it and found… Inside was an ancient violin wrapped in tattered cloth. As he played it, everyone in the neighborhood heard beautiful music wafting through the streets. Turned out, the violin belonged to a retired musician who had misplaced it years ago. The delivery driver became a local hero for returning it—and now, whenever someone delivers packages to Banco Santander, they always bring their own instrument to jam with the neighbors.

2. One night, while closing up shop, a security guard heard an eerie humming coming from inside Banco Santander's vault. Curious, he approached and saw a small light flickering deep within. As he got closer, he realized it was just an old refrigerator left behind during renovations. The humming came from its defrost cycle. Relieved but embarrassed, he joked, ‘Guess I’ll be the bank’s first ghost until someone finds you.’

3. One foggy morning, a postal worker delivered mail to Banco Santander and found the doors wide open—no teller inside, no customers around. As he stepped closer, he heard soft laughter echoing from within. Curious, he peered inside and saw an old grandfather clock ticking away in the empty lobby. Suddenly, a tiny voice giggled, ‘Don’t be afraid, I’m just winding you up!’ A small golden retriever bounded out from behind the counter, wagging its tail. The postal worker laughed, realizing it was all a clever prank by a friendly neighborhood dog.

4. At dawn, a jogger passing by Banco Santander caught a strange whiff of freshly baked bread drifting from inside. Curious, he peered through the glass doors only to see rows upon rows of empty shelves, but no baker in sight. Just then, a delivery driver arrived with a box marked ‘croissants’. He opened it, and out popped a sleepy-looking parrot shouting, ‘Not again!’ Turns out, Banco Santander was home to a mischievous avian pastry chef who loved pranks more than profits.
