Farmers & Drovers Bank

1893

Constructed by F. Roussillet, contractor, this building is an electic [sic] style two story brick with limestone Romanesque arches over half round stained glass windows, marble columns and a Bysantine [sic] dome. The adjacent business building was constructed in 1902 to compliment the ornate bank structure. It is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Farmers and Drovers Bank was organized in 1882 with W.H. White as president.

Marker is at the intersection of Main Street (U.S. 56) and Neosho Street (Kansas Route 177), on the left when traveling west on Main Street.
