The Farmers and Mechanics Bank is a historic building in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
The bank decided to move its headquarters to the intersection of M Street and Wisconsin Avenue,[1] and constructed the present building between 1921 and 1922,[2] across the street from the Potomac Savings Bank.
[3] The dome and cupola atop the rounded corner portico were gilded with gold leaf in 1961 and remains so today.
[6] In 1985, Riggs Bank decided to restore many of its historic bank buildings, including the Georgetown location, returning the interior, which had been extensively remodeled over the years, to more closely model its original design.
