Ladora Savings Bank
The Ladora Savings Bank is a historic structure along U.S. Route 6 in Ladora, Iowa, United States. Constructed in 1920, it was closed when the bank that built it failed in the Great Depression, leaving it to be used by a succession of businesses. Today, it is occupied by a restaurant, the Ladora Bank Bistro. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since August 3, 1990.
==Structure==
Designed by William Lightner and Charles B. Zalesky, the masonry Neoclassically-styled building included two substantial Doric columns in its facade and several tall windows on the sides.〔〔Pictures of the (front ) and (sides ) of the building.〕 The structure originally included restrooms (including an outside exit for women to use discreetly), which were an unusual feature; at its opening, the bank promoted these restrooms to its customers.〔("Bistro in the Bank" ), ''Marengo Pioneer Republican'', spring (May?) 2008. Accessed 2008-12-23.〕 Among its interior features visible to the public were marble counters, wooden floors, and paintings on the wall, while massive vaults were built to protect valuables; recent renovations have restored these features, most of which still remain.〔(Historic Bank on US 6 Reopens ), ''Des Moines Register'' via Iowa Historic Preservation Alliance News.
