Main Street in Danbury

Main Street in Danbury, Connecticut, has some attractive buildings and features.



Union Savings Bank is a handsome 1887 brick building with strong exterior details.



The Savings Bank of Danbury has a history going back to 1849.  
The current Main Street building dates from 1909.


The former Danbury National Bank building.


It's not all banks and old WASP businesses.  Danbury has benefited over the centuries from an influx of immigrants who worked in Danbury industries and stores.   A church and gathering place rubs shoulders with the banks and civic buildings.



A transformer didn't want to be left out.

Great collection of old and new classical architecture!

Love seeing the Romanesque architectural details of these late 19th Century buildings. Those clocks used to be common features, but most are now long gone.
