Description: Passaic, NEW JERSEY - People's Bank - 1934: The People's Bank and Trust Company Building is an Art Deco skyscraper built in 1931 and located at 663 Main Avenue in the city of Passaic in Passaic County, New Jersey. The 154-foot (47 m) tall building is the highest in the city. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 19, 2018, for its significance in architecture. Vacant since 1994, it is now owned by the Passaic Urban Enterprise Zone. In 1930, People's Bank and Trust Company acquired three other banking institutions, the Hobart Trust Company, the City Trust Company and the Merchants Bank of Passaic, and needed a new, larger building. The building was designed with Art Deco style by the architectural firm of Halsey, McCormack and Helmer based in New York City. They had previously designed the Williamsburg Savings Bank Tower. The building was constructed by John W. Ferguson Company of Paterson. The first-floor features storefronts, followed by an ashlar limestone section with large windows, and finally a yellow buff brick office tower. Originally 11-stories, a third-floor mezzanine was added in 2016. This Linen Era postcard, mailed in 1934, is in good condition. Art Photo Greeting Co. Elizabeth, N. J.
