German-American Bank Building
It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. It is located in the St. Joseph's Commerce and Banking Historic District.
In 1986 a number of aspects were photographed and documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey.
It was announced in July, 2014, that Heartland Health and Mosaic Life Care would be renovating the building along with surrounding properties in a 2-year, $20 million effort. As part of a revitalization project in downtown St. Joseph, it will provide office space for up to 200 health workers. At the time of the announcement, it is being used by Legal Aid of Western Missouri and several other businesses. The renovation is intended to blend historic bank features such as the natural brick walls and the carved columns with the company's standard design look and modern features.
