New Rochelle Trust Building

The New Rochelle Trust Company Building, located in New Rochelle, New York, is a historic site significant for its architectural design by F. C. Merry and its role in the local banking history. Established in 1888, it was the first public banking facility in the area. The building features a blend of 1880s brownstone construction and a 1908 remodeling that added two stories and a new entrance. Notable for its fireproof design and quality materials, it has been recognized for its restoration efforts, including the removal of a non-original canopy to reveal its ornate details. This building is an integral part of the Main Street business district and reflects the city's historical development.
