Miniature HO Scale (1:87) Detailed Miniature First Bank of the United States Built Assembled Model proudly designed and made in the United States. 

The First Bank of the United States, located in Philadelphia, played a pivotal role in the early economic development of the United States. Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury, championed its creation. Constructed in 1797, the building stands as a testament to Hamilton's vision for a strong national bank.

The bank's establishment was a controversial move at the time, with strong opposition from Thomas Jefferson and other Democratic-Republicans who favored state-controlled banks. However, Hamilton successfully argued that a national bank was necessary to stabilize the nation's finances, provide credit, and manage the government's fiscal operations.

The First Bank's imposing design, inspired by classical architecture, reflected the institution's authority and stability. It set a precedent for the design of future bank buildings in the United States. The bank operated for twenty years until its charter expired in 1811. Although short-lived, the First Bank of the United States laid the foundation for the modern American financial system.
