Ritz-Carlton Philadelphia
The Ritz-Carlton Philadelphia is luxury hotel and residential complex in Center City, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. It comprises three adjoining buildings: the Girard Trust Bank, at the northwest corner of South Broad & Chestnut Streets; the Girard Trust Building, at the southwest corner of South Broad Street & South Penn Square; and The Residences at the Ritz Carlton, at 1414 South Penn Square.
==Girard Trust Bank==
Girard Trust Bank – also known as Girard Trust Corn Exchange Bank Building – was built as the headquarters and main branch of the Girard Bank, a company founded in 1811. The Beaux Arts building was inspired by the Pantheon in Rome, and was conceived by architect Frank Furness.〔George E. Thomas, et al., ''Frank Furness: The Complete Works'', (New York: Princeton Architectural Press, 1996), pp. 338-39.〕 The commission was shared between the Philadelphia firm of Furness, Evans & Company and the New York firm of McKim, Mead & White. The building was begun in 1905 and completed in 1907.
While its masonry dome is hemispherical on the exterior, the interior is octagonal. The soaring, 4-story Main Banking Room is used as the hotel's restaurant and ballroom.
