  • This building was built in1920 a by Joseph Cunha and opened in 1921. It is an example of the Roman Classical style of the 20th century. Raymond W. Hatch designed the building. The exterior is glazed terra cotta and brick. The interior features marble flooring and iron-banking teller?s cages. The bank is now a museum. The bank as a business was incorporated in 1905 by local ranchers and in 1933, though still solvent, the founders closed the bank. Echo businessmen bragged that the bank survived the depression to be sold to First National Bank of Pendleton. The building was then used as a cash exchange and later as an insurance office. In 1980, Joseph C. Andrews purchased and donated the building to the Echo historical Museum, Inc.
