History
The building was erected between 1919 and 1922 on the site of the former Wilbur Hotel and was designed by architect William Lee Stoddart from New York.
During the 1970s, the First National Bank of Charleroi became part of the First National Bank and Trust Company based in Washington. This institution was subsequently acquired by Gallatin Bank in Fayette County in 1980. Gallatin Bank was later absorbed by Integra Bank of Pittsburgh. Following Integra's acquisition by National City Bank of Cleveland, Ohio, the bank ceased operations at this location in 1997. In 2002, Ductmate Industries purchased and restored the building to establish its corporate headquarters.
