Summary[edit]

Description The Dime Savings Bank of Brooklyn building at 9 Dekalb Avenue at Fleet Street in the Civic Center area of Brooklyn, New York City was built in 1906-08 and was designed by Mowbray & Uffinger in the Classical Revival style.. It was significantly enlarged by Halsey, McCormack & Helmer in 1931-32. The interior of the building is "remarkable" (AIA Guide) and features large gilded Mercury-head dimes and twelve red marble columns supporting the rotunda; these were added in the 1931-32 expansion. (Sources: Guide to NYC Landmarks (4th ed.) and AIA Guide to NYC (5th ed.)) The Dime Savings Bank of Brooklyn was later renamed to be the Dime Savings Bank of New York.
