Alma Exchange Bank & Trust - Alma
Adam B This is Georgias greatest still-existing contribution to Googie architecture, a space-age, Jetsons-like, mid-century structure meant to catch the eye of passing motorists, which is nowadays very uncommon in the South and most of the country. There was a twin bank in Sylvester, Georgia that was demolished. The swirly structure (now Pineland Bank) dates from 1966 and has a plaque in front with its history. Among Googie artifacts, this is one of the more far flung, but worth a visit, say if you are driving from Atlanta or parts Northwest headed to the Golden Isles or Floridas eastern coastline.
