I used to work in a building with a denoted 13th floor. The story was the partner in the lawfirm that occupied that floor (where I worked) insisted on it being numbered that way before he'd lease space in the building as it was under construction.
IIRC, there was a band in Austin named "The 13th Floor Elevators." I'm not sure if they knew about the bank building or not. I do know the law firm moved out of the building decades ago. I still wonder if the building changed the elevator buttons and renumbered the floors by now.
I wouldn't be surprised.
