The Utah State Historical Marker, mounted on the front of the building, reads:
102 North Main
This structure is built with beautiful, gray brick that has been well preserved. The two-story flat roofed building has a classical emphasis. The original front entrance of double doors was crowned with a stone engraving depicting a pioneer scene which emphasized the hometown roots of the original company. The ground on which the building sits was the original location of the second banking institution in Logan. The year 1892 brought “gentile” George H. Champ to Logan to found Utah Mortgage and Loan Company; he built a bank on this very piece of property. The institution was very successful and expanded throughout the Rocky Mountains. That firm then spawned another bank on the same premises named the Cache Valley Banking Company in 1903. This company built the present building in 1928 which housed Walker Bank and currently, Zion's Bank.
