Bank of Osceola
The Bank of Osceola is a historic bank building at 207 East Hale Street in Osceola, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick structure, built in 1909 during Osceola's major building boom. Decorative brick and stone elements on its facade include a cornice between the two floors, with a scalloped effect. This band once included panels said to depict the Native American chief Osceola; these are now on a building at the local high school. The building housed a bank and grocery store when opened, with law and real-estate offices above. The decorative elements inside include elaborate woodwork and mosaic-tile floors.[2]
