About this place
What is Commercial Bank and Banker's House?
The Commercial Bank and Banker's House is an unusual combination building, housing both a bank premises and the principal banker's residence, at 206 Main Street and 107 Canal Street in Natchez, Mississippi. Built in 1833, it is a remarkably high-quality and well-preserved example of Greek Revival architecture. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1974. The bank portion of the building, used for a time by a Christian Science congregation, is presently vacant, while the house portion is a private residence. Both buildings have carved limestone used extensively, columns, lintels, window sills, and the entire facade is carved limestone, with the walls being 20" thick brick construction with scored plaster to have the appearance of large limestone blocks.
