Overview

This 26-story skyscraper office tower, designed by the New York Office of Welton D. Becket and Associates, originally served as the headquarters of the Hartford National Bank and Trust Company. It later became converted to offices and apartments and was rechristened "777 Main Street." The banking firm was established in 1792, making it the oldest bank in CT.

Completed in 1967, this Modernist highrise served the Hartford National Bank and Trust for many years before it was merged with a series of other entities including the Shawmut Bank (est. 1836), Providence Bank of Rhode Island (est. 1791 and renamed "Fleet Bank" in 1982), and the Bank of America. It was vacated in 2011 and renovated into rental apartments and offices by 2015.
