DescriptionPhotograph of Merchants and Mechanics Bank, the north and east facade. Sign for parking for the Hathaway Advertising Company, warning "Employees Only." The Merchants' and Mechanics' Bank was built in 1831 as the first Greek revival commercial building in the district with Iconic columns donning the facade. One of the many buildings designed in such a style along the historic district between 1790 and 1855, this building was the work of architect Russell Warren. Housing two prominent banking institutions, two architects were commissioned over time, disagreements in style causing a slight difference between the vertical slope of the left four and right four columns.
