Description
Lobby
The spacious halls of this bank scream class. Slick marble tiles line the entire floor of this rather impressively built establishment. The walls are a baby blue in color, and have solid oak panels along the bottom to about four feet high. Thick black velvet ropes line the spaces for customers to follow to make their way to an available cashier. To your right as you enter from the street is a cubicle covered by glass that only reflects distorted images of the persons behind it. To the left is a set of stairs that leads to the upstairs area. The lines to this bank are typically long, but they do provide a quick and effective service for all their customers. Smiling faces and attentive security guards are always pleased to assist you with all of your needs.
Second Floor
The second floor of the bank is less elegant looking than that of the first floor. A long hallway stretches down with several doors on either side. The doors all have signs on the door with the name and department of the person who owns the office behind the door. At the end of the hallway is a large window that provides a view of the city outside the building.
