The West Side Savings Bank built a four-story branch on the east side of Sixth Avenue in 1956. The design was modernistic, with big areas of glass and pale horizontal bands against a dark vertical tower at the south end. That tower carried the bank's name and, on every face, a clock-and-thermometer display. More of the name appeared in large aluminum block letters over the main banking room.
