Historic name: People's National Bank Building (built 1932)

About This Property

The People’s National Bank Building served Tyler’s growing need for office space during the early years of the East Texas oil boom. The building housed oil companies, geologists, attorneys, engineers, and insurance companies. The building became the city’s most prestigious business address during the 1930’s and 1940’s. When it was built in 1932, it was the tallest building west of the Mississippi River. The building is currently being restored by a joint venture of Tyler’s two earliest families the Bergfelds and Brookshires.
