The bank became insolvent in 1924 and the building served as a post office, cafe, plumbing shop and electrical shop. The "Barnes State Bank" was listed on the the Kansas Preservation Alliance Endangered Sites List in 2006. The building fronts historic K-9 (also known at the Great White Way) along Railroad Avenue. Clarence Barker, Salem, Oregon, purchased the stately red brick structure and has been responsible for it's restoration as a memorial to his great grandfather, Clinton Hogue, one of the original founders of the bank in 1911. On November 10, 2007, the Barnes Trust for Historic Preservation hosted the re-dedication of the Barnes State Bank Museum. Find This Exploration! Get Directions Share This Exploration!
