HISTORY
During the construction of the current building in 1882, the Bank transacted business in the old kitchen annex of the cashier\'s home.
Delaware County National Bank was chartered by the Pennsylvania state government in 1814 and was Delaware County\'s first bank. In 1864, the bank was incorporated as a national bank. In 1882, the Board of Directors determined that the bank had outgrown the original 1814 building and hired Patrick A. Welsh to design a new building. The building was razed and the current Delaware County National Bank was built on the same site.
In 1930, the building stopped serving as the offices of the Delaware County National Bank. Since then it has served as offices for the Crozer-Chester Medical Center, the United Way and the RDC Institute.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
