About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside the RBC Royal Bank and noticed something odd. The security guard was standing motionless, his eyes fixed on the building’s clock. Curious, the driver walked over. ‘Morning,’ he said gently. The guard didn’t move. Then, everyone heard it—a soft chime from inside. The guard’s watch had stopped exactly when he did. A regular passing by laughed: ‘Maybe he just forgot to wind it.’
2. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the RBC Royal Bank and asked the guard: ‘Excuse me, is it true that you can withdraw money here even if you don’t have an account?’ The guard smiled warmly and replied, 'Why, yes sir, that's absolutely true!' The old man beamed with delight and said, 'Splendid! Then I’ll just pop in every now and then for a little cash.' And so, he became quite the regular, often stopping by to chat with the staff and enjoy their friendly banter.
3. At dawn, when most banks were still locking their doors, a jogger passed by the RBC Royal Bank and heard soft piano music drifting from inside. Curious, the jogger peered through the window and saw an old man in a suit, dancing clumsily with a dusty marionette. ‘Good morning!’ called the man cheerfully, not realizing he was talking to empty air. The jogger burst out laughing, and together they danced a little jig until a delivery driver arrived, confused but amused.
4. At midnight, when the city slept, a shadowy figure entered the empty RBC Royal Bank. The security camera recorded only silence until, with a soft click, the vault door slowly opened. Inside, a faint humming sound filled the air as ancient machinery stirred to life. Suddenly, an old cash register chirped and printed out a receipt for 'one million dollars'—but in tiny letters it read 'Happy Halloween!' The ghostly figure laughed softly and vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a whiff of autumn leaves and a puzzled security guard.
