Long Building at 928 Grand which opened on November 16, 1914 until a new $4.3 million building could be built across the street at 925 Grand which formally opened in November 1921 in Downtown Kansas City. Shortly after it was established, the bank rented space to outside tenants.〔(-Timeline - Official Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Website )〕 President Harry S. Truman had his office in Room 1107 of the building from when he left the Presidency in 1953 until the Truman Library was completed in 1957. In 2002, the bank announced plans to build a new facility at 1 Memorial Drive 20 blocks south at 29th and Main on on a hilltop south of the Liberty Memorial. The historic 925 Grand Building was the oldest building of any Federal Reserve Bank operating at that time. It was sold to Townsend LLC in March 2005 and the Reserve leased back the structure until the new building opened.〔(Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Announces Sale of Headquarters Building - March 15, 2005 - Official Press Release )〕 It was designed by Henry N.
