Bank of Ponce, Beaux-Arts bank building in Ponce, Puerto Rico.
The Bank of Ponce stands as a four-story brick and concrete structure featuring a continuous facade with ornamental square Corinthian columns and decorative medallions.
Constructed in 1924 by architect Francisco Porrata Doria, the Bank of Ponce served as the main office until merging with Banco Popular in 1990.
The third floor of the building contained a ballroom for Ponce's casino, representing the social gatherings of the early 20th century banking elite.
The building remains operational as a downtown branch and regional office of Banco Popular, situated at the intersection of Mayor and Marina streets.
Pink stone from a local quarry forms the exterior walls, creating a connection between the building and other structures throughout Ponce.
