Description

The Providence National Bank building with the Industrial Trust building towering up from behind. The Providence National Bank, completed in 1930, was demolished in 2005 to make room for a luxury condo. Plans for that building were ultimately scrapped but the facade of the Providence National Bank was salvaged and remains.
