The Roslyn Savings Bank Building stands as a designated historic commercial edifice located on Old Northern Boulevard within the Incorporated Village of Roslyn, Nassau County, on Long Island, New York.

Description

Erected in 1932 to serve Roslyn Savings Bank, this structure succeeded an earlier building from 1906 that accommodated both Roslyn Savings Bank and the Bank of Hempstead Harbor (which was later renamed Roslyn National Bank and Trust Company), the latter having moved to a nearby location in 1931. The design, created by architect Alfred C. Shaknis, comprises a single-story banking hall topped with a gable roof alongside a two-story office section exhibiting Georgian Revival style. The facade, organized into five bays, features a central doorway accentuated by an ornate pedimented stone frame.

Subsequent expansions in 1963 and 1980 extended the premises onto the site formerly occupied by the Roslyn Hotel. This building gained inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
