In the Harrietstown village of Saranac Lake is this building built in 1907.
The building is located in the downtown section of the village, on the west side of Main Street.
The building is a three-story structure. The facade is brick, with arches on the second and third floors where there are two open porches. There is a sign above the first floor that says Adirondack Bank.
A walking tour on the Historic Saranac Lake web site says the following about this building:
"Designed architects Scopes and Feustmann, who were among the first tenants, it was also the home of the Saranac Lake National Bank."
According to another part of the site, Saranac Lake National Bank went bankrupt soon after the building was built and was reorganized into the Saranac Lake Savings and Loan, which became the Adirondack Bank, which is there, today.
