The former bank's monumental limestone facade is composed of two-story pilasters supporting a full entablature and a pediment. This composition is echoed in the pedimented entrance, as if it is a miniature temple within a larger temple. Engaged Ionic columns frame three tall and narrow second-story windows. The result produces an interesting layered effect.
