One of two iconic bank buildings on North Main Street, this one at #133. It was originally the Port Chester-Rye Savings Bank, founded in 1865. This structure was erected in 1926. The name changed to Village Savings Bank in 1975 and to Village Bank in 1989. The building most recently housed Wells Fargo Bank, which closed in 2023, and is now for lease.
