The building is architecturally significant as the last major large commercial structure constructed in Lewiston prior to World War I. As such, this former bank symbolizes the high water mark of the city’s fortunes as an industrial center. It is also the tallest office building in Lewiston erected before 1950, and the only one to exhibit the then fashionable neo-classical design using yellow brick and limestone trim.
