About This Property

The current building, located on the north side of the plaza principal, remains true to the 1971 design. With classical massing and inflections, the Commercial National Bank references the Post Office and Federal building, which is located directly across Main Street. The exterior of the bank, faced in red brick is divided into nine bays. Three of these bays are marked by expansive arched windows (nonoperable), with alternating blank bays. The overall rhythm reads as a-b-aa-b-aa-b-a, with "b" representing a window bay and "a" representing a blank bay. Each bay is demarcated by abstracted, squared, white pilaster. The blank bays are adorned only with a single-course. Brick ornament suggesting an outline of an arched window with a lantern mounted within.
