The two-story building was completed in 1896.

The bank was later acquired by the Mercantile Bancorporation, which was in turn acquired by the Firstar Corporation, and eventually U.S. Bancorp. Later, the building was home to a restaurant. It is now home to TechArtista, a St. Louis-based coworking space with multiple locations in the city.
