This 20-story ultra-modern office building is the home and main office of the Franklin Trust Company. The building is in the heart of Philadelphia's new financial center, and is constructed of Indiana limestone. In addition to this main office, the Franklin Trust Company operates four other offices in Philadelphia's principal business centers, and will also have an exclusive building on the Sesqui-Centennial grounds, in which all official banking business for the Sesqui-Centennial Exposition will be conducted, under our appointment as the Official Bank of the Exposition.
Our main office and all branches, including the official bank on the Sesqui grounds, are open until midnight daily.
AMERICA'S LARGEST EXCLUSIVELY DAY AND NIGHT BANK.
