Casco Bank Block on Middle Street

I wish they still built banks, or any buildings, like this. This is the former Casco National Bank location on Middle Street. The ground floor is currently occupied by Akari Salon.

  1. It is most beautiful and grand. And the lit up windows just make an exquisite photo!

  2. Casco was where I had my first bank account back in the mid 1970s.

  3. Very nice picture! That's the Casco Mercantile Bank that failed during the depression. They reorganized as Casco Bank & Trust and took over the also-failed Chapman National Bank. That's how they ended up at 477 Congress, the Time & Temp Bldg.
