Dude a LOOOT of banks used to print their own money. In fact it was all they used to print bills back then until it got expensive and they made other places to make them.
If you kept the robbery story to yourself and told no one, I would bet all of my money that no one would even mention a shadow but as soon as you say someone died here, people start seeing the boogieman.

Can you explain why private boxes weren’t returned to previous owners? Why she wound up with a vault full of valuables that weren’t the banks to give away?
@@shianmendez6516there are laws that allow you to claim stuff if it’s considered abandoned, especially if the bank made a reasonable effort to contact the owners or their heirs.
@@MastaSmack I believe her. God forbid anybody be proud and claim their achievements, especially when being interviewed for a national bit on CNN. Geez give this lady a break.
She has done none of the work as she keep saying ive done this or done that ,,,, all she's done is used her husbands or ex husband money to pay some one to do everything for her
I have seen a lot of things made into houses but this is by far the most beautiful one I have ever seen. She was a TELLER there when she was young! What amazing history this building holds for her. She is correct by, she IS A QUEEN!!
Been watching 100s of Van Life videos for several years and I can recall my top 5 builds. This woman's home ranks in my top 10 awesome custom homes. I can see she absolutely enjoys her space not to mention she used to work there. Very cool.
+Joe Lanzisera I guess that would kinda be like Storage Wars from TV, if you were alive and knew the Bank was closing, you should have gotten your shit out! I guess if the person is dead you just get what comes with the bank, Now that has to be the safest bar in the world. I always thought of either a Bank or a Church, because the outer walls are just massive and great to look at, and there is always something hidden in both buildings.
she did such a beautiful job designing her home- i like that she added the 1/2 circle curve .. that really made it look amazing with those high ceilings.. her taste, the jazz bar vault- amazing!
So weird she lives in a building where she used to work. This is awesome!! I would love to tour this place irl!! She did an amazing job turning this into an actual home yet keeping the bank charm too.
@@MyNameIsWes No it's not moist, it's *just* heat. The room is made of cedar which is naturally resistant to any regular moisture from the air anyways, and if you are ever in doubt after a use just leave the door open to ventilate... it would be just releasing heat to the rest of your house and not steam. It's a DRY sauna. It's like sitting in an oven. I lived in a house with an unventilated dry sauna exactly like hers for 10 years with no problems.
I love what she did. There are a lot of small towns with abandoned buildings. Surprised someone who works from home haven't done this with housing crisis going on.
Keep in mind that she has old bills which are worth a lot. So not a bad investment. I like how she used her creativity to decorate the bank to her taste. But everyone here has different taste. I would of done something different of course.
Drove by this place a gazillion times growing up and never knew this was someone's house...thank god I never tried to walk in thinking it was a actual bank
I think her decorating style is cheesy and that rose-colored carpet is utter crap, but as an idea, it's pretty cool. Too bad she didn't hire a decorator. In the right hands, this could look phenomenal.
This is such a amazing beautifully designed house. Kudos for her being so clever. A true original. Most houses now a days look all the same, good for her making something her own ^^
I just thought what of she runs in the vault to get something and a string from her jacket or clothing catches on and she gets slammed in(it'll take a day or 2 for the fire department to cut in)
Congratulations!! You live in a crack house!! You’ve reached your goals in life so now you spend the remainder being hateful, jealous, and miserable towards those who have a better life!! Grow up!!
Great Job,In Australia,old Bank Buildings are for sale from $100,00 and upwards. They are impressive buildings as they were designed to last,are secure and have a high quality of workmanship and attention to detail.My Dad was a Bank Manager and we lived upstairs over a Bank for years.Great place to play as a kid. And yes,I did end up working in a Bank.
Just shows how weak a lot of regulations in America have been that someone in 1989 could buy an old bank and keep a lot of the contents that customers entrusted the bank with.
Wow what a stunning home so very stylish yet comfortable and incorporating as much as the old banks features into her design including the vault into a bar with the banks memorabilia on display is a great idea . This home is exceptional and anyone who has the privilege to live in such fine surroundings is one lucky person .
something about peering through the middle of an authentic old school bank vault and seeing the bright neon "JAZZ" above a bar.....that's like design perfection right there
I'm sorry but what sort of IDIOT buys a bank and thinks that the VAULT, right, the most secure room in the whole of the building, HAS to be a bar? YOU HAVE A VAULT, USE IT PROPERLY. Damned thing should be a shelter/panic room. SMH.
If she can afford to buy a bank,convert it into a home and listed on historical registry I doubt she's an idiot. The bank itself is probably already built like a tank. And the bar can double as additional shelter anyway......you just go inside and close the door.
BlackWorldTraveler Yeah, it can double as a bar, or you could fit it out a to be a survival shelter that doubles as a bar, rather than the other way around. What is the problem is the first thought. The first thought shouldn't be: Bank vault = bar it should be Bank vault = panic room THEN you think, and everyday use should be a bar. Her first thought was to show off, and to make it a bar. That's just stupid. It should be loaded with supplies, and then when she needs to go in, she has a phone and supplies and a loo, and can go in without having to worry about getting hurt. What's she gonna do when she goes in there? Drink alcohol get drunk and wait for it all to go away?
+30secondstomarsMBH She can just close and lock her front door like everyone else. Not you typical house door. It's a small town It's not a bank anymore. She will be fine.
Brad Lee Firstly a panic room in a bank vault wouldn't be gotten to by anyone unless it's a crime gang. Secondly, everyone should have a panic room, especially in the US. There's no need for a gun, yet Americans have them, and with that threat, everyone should have a panic room. Thirdly, why not? It's a room in which you can shelter during an attack or disaster. It's another mechanism to keep you alive and help you survive, use it. Fourthly, being paranoid helps keep you alive numbnuts. Survivalism is about being prepared. If something happened WE'D be the ones staying alive during a disaster and you'd be the idiot civilian that we'd have to protect and help. Survivalism works, it's better to be prepared and be able to survive than to die and survivalists have found themselves in situations where they've had to use their training to save themselves and others. Don't discredit it.
+Brad Lee I have a safe room in my condo because of the tornados here in Oklahoma. It is a walk in closet with a safe built into the cabinet. It can be used as a type of safe room. When my niece is at home alone she runs inside and lock herself in and Wait for police if there's an intruder. Security system does the rest. But I don't plan for zombie apocalypse.

Heck i can decorate to my own taste and change or remove the carpet.
she got it in 1989, renovated the same time, so it is the same. very chic for its time
Don't assume this is brand new renovation...it was purchased in the 80's, so a lot of what you see was 80's style.
Endeavor
Yup. Pink and also green,blue carpet,and lots of mirrored walls was the thing back then.
maybe she did lol.. not all designers are good
That vault door gives me the creeps. I would never have anything like that in my house!
If I came to a substantial amount of money the first think I’d do is buy this house. AMAZING
