The Story of the Banking Hall

College Green was established two centuries ago to promote the arts, presenting works by the Old Masters. The site was repurposed in 1866 as the headquarters of the Provincial Bank. Through the following century-and-a-half, the Banking Hall and those who passed between its columns, bore witness to the tumult and excitement of a city being born into cultured modernity. As awe-inspiring as when it was new, the venue was restored magnificently at the turn of the century to its present-day grandeur.
