Scope and content
ca. 1954. Robert Bisson created a scale model of the National Bank of Washington, complete with toy cars and "landscaping", which would open its South 54th and Pacific location in January, 1955. Bisson's model showed the bank's modern design and large parking lot. The National Bank of Washington's new branch was designed by the architectural firm of Lea, Pearson & Richards. It is possible that Robert Bisson was related to Hubert Bisson who was listed in the 1954 City Directory as an architect for Lea, Pearson & Richards; Hubert Bisson resided not far from the new branch at 6320 South "D".
