Regarding Citizens & Southern National Bank. Excerpt from the Spartanburg Historic District Nomination Form:
The Citizens and Southern National Bank is a two-story brick building constructed in 1905. A Doric order with colossal pilasters and a terra-cotta entablature defines the building. A double entrance with an arched pediment is centered on the three-bay facade. The Magnolia Street elevation has two-over-two sash on the first story and large multi-light windows on the second story. The interior has been remodeled, but the original teller's cages and layout remain.
