This Day in Wells Fargo HistoryOctober 21, 1959

American Trust Company opened a distinctive banking space in San Francisco. The modern interior was light, open, and perfectly round. American Trust soon merged with Wells Fargo, and this mid-century building became a city historical landmark in 1987.
An open bank interior space, round in shape with multiple floor to ceiling windows with draperies on every side. Ceiling shows support beams radiating out in all directions from hub-like center. Natural light falls from ceiling center skylight onto floor. In the round room are people walking or standing on both sides of two low counters, also slightly rounded in crescent shape to fit the circular interior space.
