Continental Bank Building (Salt Lake City)
.jpg)
Description
The building was constructed in 1923. The facade is eclectic, showing Second Renaissance Revival elements at the first two floors and utilitarian features above, and the building includes a modest, classical cornice.
Designed by George W. Kelham in 1922, the building was constructed on the former site of the National Bank of the Republic after a merger of banks controlled by James E. Cosgriff. After Cosgriff's death in 1938, his son, Walter E. Cosgriff, eventually became president of the bank. The building became home to Kimpton Hotel Monaco in 1999.
The Continental Bank Building was added to the NRHP December 27, 1982.
