CITIZEN’S SAVINGS BANK
54–58 Bowery
Clarence W. Brazer
1924
This grand bank dominates the corner of Canal and Bowery, and references the Manhattan Bridge’s access across the street in design and materials. This Beaux-Arts beauty features a bronze dome, carved stone ornamentation, arches, pilasters, scrolls, keystones, a classical entablature and a balustrade. The Bowery façade possesses a clock that is flanked by Native American and seamen figures and is topped with an eagle. The building still serves as a bank today. It was designated a city landmark in 2011.
