First National Bank Building (1917)
This second renaissance revival, white terra cotta structure is
distinguished by its engaged Doric columns, round arched windows, pedimented
entry, cornice and parapet. The building went through extensive
restoration in the 1980s and received the Orchid Award from the Idaho State
Historic Society in 1988. Built originally to house the First National
Bank of Wallace, it was charted in 1892. This was the first nationally
charted bank in Shoshone County. ~ Guide to Historic Wallace, Idaho
