Here for Generations: The Story of a Maine Bank and Its City tells the remarkable tale of a town and a bank that have moved in concert for 150 years, and captures their history through triumph and tragedy. Together, Bangor Savings Bank and Bangor have seen the rise and fall of the great lumber economy and survived the economic depression of the 1870s that nearly killed the bank. They experienced the Flood of 1902, rebuilt following the Great Fire of 1911, and hung tough during the Great Depression. And they watched the city become the region's premier service and retail hub. You will also find the bank's rise from its simple origin as a nineteenth-century repository for Bangor widows, orphans, and daily laborers to a statewide leader in the twenty-first century-a prime source of financial services, mortgages, and the capital that fuels the economic engine of the Pine Tree State. It has been a remarkable ride.
