The Bowery Savings Bank Building is a Classical Revival Building at 130 Bowery, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York City. It is at the junction of the Bowery and Grand Street.
The Bowery Savings Bank building was erected in 1894. It was built next to a building that belonged to a rival establishment, the Butcher' and Drovers' Bank, which refused to sell the corner plot to Bowery Savings Bank. So the architect designed the facade of the Bowery Savings Bank to wrap around the rival building.
