1934: REMEMBERING THE YARDVILLE NATIONAL BANK

It's was a familiar sight to see as we wended our way down South Broad Street in Yardville and passed the old Yardville National Bank. The building is still  there, but it now sports the name of one of the larger banks which have taken over the fast evaporating independent community bank. It is interesting to note that the old familiar building was moved to that site. Does any visitor know where it was moved from?

I believe it was moved from around the corner and was a boys' school or academy at one time. Anonymous

I have information that the bank was originally the house of Pietro and Teresa Repole. The state bought the house off them, and then sold it to Yardville Bank. It was moved, on logs, from the corner of Rt#156 and Yardville Allentown Rd to the current location on South Broad St.
