Notes
  • Significance: Northwestern National Bank stands as testimony to the importance of North Philadelphia as it developed in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. It also attests to the particular prestige of W. Girard Avenue and that transportation corridor's important commercial focus in the vicinity of its intersection with Ridge Avenue. The bank's exterior articulation displays high-Victorian eclecticism as it developed in Philadelphia under the influence of Frank Furness. As a representative type, the structure reflects the civic importance imbued on bank buildings throughout the nation up through World War II.
