Ocean Bank

Stonington, CT

The Ocean Bank is one of the many historic buildings in Stonington Borough.  It was incorporated in Stonington in 1851 with a capital of $100,000.  By looking at the walls, you'd know this was a bank.  The building was purchased by the Stonington Historical Society and was once destined to be a museum.  However, today it still serves as a back, although still owned by the historical society.

  1. Didn't know historical societies operated their own banks. Classic building.

    1. I think they just own the building. Someone else operates the bank.
