Woodhouse and Bartley Bank
Image
The building was erected after a fire which destroyed most of the Bloomington business section in 1897. The bank was acquired by Peter Woodhouse and Patrick Bartley in 1883, from William B. Clark and William Humphrey, who had established it in 1872. The bank is still in operation, although now owned wholly by the Bartley family.
