Bank building, Falls and Yates Store

Attached - Morris Chronicle in 1894 summary of the year of 1893, mentions founding of bank and dissolving of Falls and Yates store, so the photo is 1893 or earlier.

Description of the bank from National Register application.

132 Main St (Community Bank): Two-story, frontal-gable, stone commercial building with highly intact Colonial Revival
(1929) remodeling of Main and Broad St facades. Front façade has full return and four pilasters setting off the center entrance
and marking the corners of the building. The pilasters have fairly plain capitals (made of a cast material-easternmost one is
broken in2012 showing that capital is hollow) composed of acanthus leaves. An elliptical glazed fan with soldiered stones
forming the arch is centered in the tympanum. Center entrance has a plain pediment and squared casing with paired doors with
single oblong glazed panels. First floor fenestration on front and sides of the building uses regularly spaced windows with flat
stones soldiered to create slightly flared lintels and six-over-six wood sash with wood panels below. Upper story windows are
smaller, also with six-over-six wood sash. Built ca.1820-30; extensively remodeled 1929.

Morris. For many years, it was a general store and had several successive owners. It was taken over as a bank in 1896 and
its façade remodeled in 1929
