Eastern Township Bank, 5 South Principale Street: The erection of a bank in Sutton is the direct result of the economic and industrial development that followed the arrival of the train. In 1902 the Eastern Townships Bank was the first to be established. The building, built in 1912, has most of its original Beaux-Arts features: spare volumes but highly ornamental elements in the top part of the façade which recall the Antiquity style. Their grandiose appearance bears witness to the imposing presence and wealth of banks. This building is a model that was widely used among Eastern Townships Bank branches throughout the country.
