Additional Information: | BRICK ENTABLATURE. 4 BRICK PIERS W/STONE COURSES. August 2013: new shop windows. August 2019: Appearance unchanged. "The most austere of Main Street's Neo-Classical (Classical Revival) buildings, the Citizens State Bank (C. 1906-07) is dominated by a massive entablature supported by four colossal brick piers. The piers, which are spaced between broad and deep-set windows, are ornamented with stone banding and stone capitals. The entablature features a brick frieze, stone dentils, and a projecting cornice. Despite its massive character, the bank shares the same scale and preference for cream brick seen in other commercial buildings in this part of Main Street."
