Commercial growth prompted the establishment of a second downtown bank in 1898, the Citizens' Savings Bank. The principal shareholders used local material dealers and contractors for construction. The front featured a dazzling 8 by 11 foot plate glass window. Since 1909 this building has been occupied by small businesses.
