Bank of Bisbee

The Bank of Bisbee building, today’s Western Bank, was erected in late 1906 and designed by Trost & Trost. Historically, Trost’s work on the building has been characterized as an “addition”, however period newspaper articles seem split on whether it was such or whether it was a full-on demo/construction (Ref: Bisbee Daily Review, 07/11/1906, page 3 – attached). The Trost & Trost facade has been remodeled and is not the original. For more information, please see https://www.henrytrost.org/buildings/bank-of-bisbee-1906-addition/
