customers circulate next to the building on one side,
while others transact business at terminals while facing
the tellers and circulate around the rounded ends of the
building as they leave. The bluish tint Endicott brick

office building housing the main banking lobby across
the street.
The massive geometric brick form of the building is
contrasted against the light structure covering the teller
machines serving the customers. Indirect lighting,
reflecting off the bottom surface of the Galvalume roof
provides soft lighting for customers without the glare or
reflections often seen with the use of direct lighting.
