German American Bank

Industry
2
This lot was one of the first developed in Sidney, with use dating from 1820. It served as headquarters for the German American Bank, which collapsed in a notorious 1904 bank failure. The First National Exchange Bank, founded in 1899, rented the space in 1905. Sidney's worst fire destroyed the bank in 1914. A new fire-proof Colorado marble structure occupies the site, and it has been home to First National Bank, The Bank Discothèque, and Behr Design and Edward Jones.
