Summary

Designed for the dual purpose of housing the First National Bank of Ansley and Charles H.F. Steinmeier's drug store, the building is representative of both the development and stability of commerce in Ansley. Each of the three banks housed in the building during its period of significance also represent important trends and events in banking throughout Nebraska and the United States. Italian Renaissance Revival in style, the building is Ansley's best-articulated example of a two-story commercial building.
