Federal Reserve Bank Building
Federal Reserve Bank Building, Bank building in downtown Seattle, United States.
The Federal Reserve Bank Building features a light gray Indiana limestone facade with reddish-brown granite cladding at the basement level and a setback plaza.
The Federal Reserve Bank opened its doors in 1951 and operated until 2008, serving financial institutions across Washington, Oregon, Alaska, and northern Idaho.
The building combines Modernist architectural elements with preserved features such as the original lobby design, former teller stands, and two underground vaults.
Located at 1015 2nd Avenue, the structure stands two blocks from waterfront access and three blocks from the ferry terminal in central Seattle.
The building was constructed with structural specifications to withstand both atomic bomb impacts and major seismic events, reflecting Cold War-era security concerns.
