First National Bank Building (Monette, Arkansas)
The First National Bank Building is a historic bank building at 207 West Drew Avenue in the center of Monette, Arkansas. It is a two-story Classical Revival, built of load-bearing brick and sculptured stone in 1918, and is the most architecturally significant building in the small town. The main facade is distinguished by two large Doric columns, which frame a portico area sheltering the main entrance. The entrance, now a modern glass doorway, is framed by a molded square arch which supports a dentillated entablature. This assembly is itself framed by a more monumental round-arched molding with keystone.[2]
