Notes
  • Significance: Built in 1892 for the Bank of Wheeling this rusticated stone facade was a good example of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture. The firm of Edward B. Franzheim, one of Wheeling's most successful and best known architects, designed and built the bank. In 1907 the Bank of Wheeling consolidated with the National Bank of West Virginia. The business of banking continued here until the early 1940's when the building was converted into a store.
