Rapides Bank and Trust Company, in the Alexandria Louisiana Retrospective

Old Rapides Bank & Trust Co. Building The old Rapides Bank and Trust Company Building

Currently housing part of the well-respected Alexandria Museum of Art, this building was formerly the Rapides Bank and Trust Company, built in1898. I worked here at 933 Main Street as a computer operator on the swing shift during 1968 after graduation from college, while waiting to enter the U.S. Navy. The building, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has been handsomely preserved, and reused.
