From the vault, comes a story about Albury's first Bank of New South Wales. Lined with deep history, opening in June 1858, the bank had purchased land in Townsend Street and the famous Sydney architect Edmund J Blacket (he also designed St Matthew's Church Albury and the Great Hall of Sydney University) was commissioned to "prepare a plan for a banking house with suitable accommodation for the manager." At the time, The Border Post reported that "The building is completed in a very handsome style an ornament to the town and a standing monument testifying the value of Albury granite as a building material, and Albury workmanship."
