👀Have you ever sat in the vault? ⚡️ Iron Bank Coffee Co. was originally built as the First National Bank of Columbus, it is recognized as the largest cast-iron building in Georgia, featuring a beautiful, prefabricated facade from Pittsburgh and New York!
Bank of Columbus / First National Bank was in this historic cast-iron building known locally as the “Iron Bank”. It was used by the Bank of Columbus from 1860 to 1866 (with construction paused during the Civil War) and later functioned as the First National Bank of Columbus in the early-to-mid 1900s. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974.
Now, it is a stunning, independent, locally owned specialty coffee shop in Uptown Columbus , Georgia, housed in the historic 1860 Iron Bank Building.
😮💨We love their witty signs, too, featuring Twilight & “Hoa Hoa Hoa Hoa Season” right now.
