Centier Bank Building Above the Genesis Convention Center in Gary

The Centier Bank Building stands at the corner of Broadway and 5th Avenue in downtown Gary, Indiana. Built in 1925 as the Gary National Bank Building, it was among the city's tallest structures for decades and anchored the region's banking business during Gary's steel-boom years. Centier Bank, founded in 1895, later took over the building and placed its name atop the upper floors. The Genesis Convention Center sits just south of it, opened in 1981 as part of a downtown redevelopment plan and still used for concerts, trade shows, and civic events in Gary.
