Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The Security Bank building occupies several lots on the west side of North Main Street, between Civic Center Drive and IOU, Street. The property extends west to Sycamore Street, where a surface parking lot is located. Designed in the New Formalism style, the ten -story building consists of an eight -story tower set upon an amaded, two-story podium. The tower is flat -roofed with a broad fascia; a mechanical penthouse is set back from the roof edges and not visible from nearby streets. Of concrete construction, the exterior walls of the tower are characterized by bays of windows, deeply set within slightly segmental -arched openings, resulting in a honeycomb appearance. Each bay contains a pair of dark -tinted, anodized aluminum -framed windows, separated by a molded concrete mullion. Piers, distinguished from the mullions by their broader width, define ten bays on the east (fagade) and west (rear) elevations and nine bays on the north and south (side) elevations. A single groove also marks each pier while similar grooves subtly define each story. The corners of the tower are fenestrated rather than defined by piers. Each elevation is symmetrical and nearly identical in appearance. (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 6.) *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP7. 3+ story commercial building *P4.
