Farmer’s Bank moved to this site on North Main Street in the 1870s, and they moved out in 1929 to Park Avenue when their new skyscraper was completed (most recently known as Chase Tower.)
The bank building on the Square seen in this 1890s photo was eventually taken down to make way for Kresge’s Dime Store (today in service as a church.)
The site is easily located today by the building next door to the south (left,) as Alexander Associates Architects, which still retains much of the same character as 100 years ago.
