The Fayette Building 52 W. Main Street Uniontown, PA 15401
The design preserved a Uniontown tradition of a "round corner" - curving around the Main-Pittsburgh intersection - which had been the style at that site since 1828. (The bank had occupied an earlier round corner building after it was founded in 1864 and enlarged the building in 1883.) This resulted in the main banking room being circular, one of the few instances of such construction for financial institutions in the entire country.
