Description:: Card Text \(transcribed from postcard\): This magnificent structure representing the last word in architecture, designed for security and service, rises a hundred and ten feet with six stories above and two below the surface. The annex is of the same height as the main building, both being constructed of Indiana Limestone and is connected with the main building by tunnel and overhead bridge, and harmonizes with the main building. The vaults are three stories in height lined with steel four inches thick, non-drillable and torch proof, enclosed within a concrete wall two feet thick. The arrangement of the upper structure permits light to enter to every point on each floor on all four sides. Note: Beautiful and Historical Richmond, Va. Series No. 90; City/Location: Richmond (Va.)
