The bank building at 201 W. Main is a two-story brick and masonry building. The facade has three bays, brick faced on the ground floor and masonry on the upper level. The left bay has a recessed storefront of aluminum and glass and is occupied by an insurance agency. The right bay has a single corner entrance, with a large fixed-pane window, in front of which stands a Statue of Liberty sculpture. This area is occupied by an attorney. The center bay has a double entrance to the second floor. It does not appear to be occupied at this time.
On the second floor, the facing is masonry panels, with segmented masonry columns and single three-pane windows. The east side of the building has overlapping masonry panels, with single windows on the first and second floors. At the southeast corner, above the entrance, the word "BANK" is engraved on panels facing each direction. We could not determine the name of the bank which used to occupy this building.
In front of the building, there are four steps leading from the street to the sidewalk. These steps are stamped showing that they were constructed by the WPA in 1940.
