Jefferson County National Bank
1926
| | Historic Brookville | |
Handsome facade of granite and terra cotta, constructed by Brookville builder John H. Carr & Son from designs by Brooklyn architect A. Stanley Miller. The bank was first organized in 1878 by Thomas K. Litch, Paul Darling, and J.B. Henderson. Following the failure of the bank during the Depression, the first floor was converted to retail use. In 1940 contractor Ray H. Richards installed the present front of Carrara glass for use by the Armstrong-Collier Clothing Store.
