Citizens Bank, 1908, Cairo

The Citizens Bank is one of the finest structures in the downtown historic district, defined by its narrow Neoclassical Revival facade. Many banks of the early 20th century embraced this style. Most examples are clad in marble or limestone. I believe this one is limestone.

    I enjoy all the pictures and historical information.All the photographs and history need to be recorded in a book! It would be a big book, so worth saving!
