This building was constructed in 1895 as Mansfield’s first bank. J.H. Wright (1857-1942) organized the State Bank of Mansfield and was its president until his death. The building was sold in 1960, when a new bank building was constructed. 

Although altered, the original cornice is intact, and the safe is still inside. The building is a major contributor to a potential Main Street historic district by virtue of its architectural qualities and its association with an important local citizen. 

The building is a registered Mansfield Historic Landmark.
