Built by one of the most influential families in Brenham history, the building housed the first bank in Washington County. The third floor was the meeting place of the local Mason Lodge led by brothers J.D. and D.C. Giddings. The elegant Victorian building represents the high stature of the Giddings family, with an exquisite iron storefront. The columns in front are slender, with fluted shafts, decorative floral motifs and Corinthian capitals
