Citizen's Bank - 1905
<< Back to Virtural Tour
 Built in Justin, Texas, a small community
north of Fort Worth, the Citizen's Bank provided necessary credit for farmers
and security for local depositors. Housed in a brick building with classical
architectural elements and located on a prominent street corner, the bank was
typical of many banks built in North Central Texas around 1900.
Since banks often rented space to attorneys, doctors, or dentists, the room at
the rear of the building has been equipped as a turn-of-the-century dentist's office.
Comerica Bank presented
DHV with a legacy gift of $150,000 to commemorate the bank's 150th anniversary.
The gift funded the new audio tour program as well as an endowment for our Bank
that will allow us to care for the building and provide programming in the
building that relates
to the history of banking in North Central
Texas.
Comerica also generously loaned DHV 2 bank ledgers that date from the company's early years.
