BMO Harris Bank

BMO Harris Bank, N.A. is a Chicago-based bank. It is a member of the Federal Reserve System.

The bank is owned by BMO Financial Corporation, a holding company which in turn is owned by Bank of Montreal, also known as BMO Financial Group.

The bank is headquartered in a complex of three buildings in Chicago's Loop neighborhood. The original 21-story building was constructed in 1910 at 119 West Monroe Street. The entrance to the building is flanked by two bas-relief sculptures of lions which were used in the bank's logo until 2011. In 1960, a 23-story structure was added to the east with the address of 111 West Monroe. In 1974, a second 38-story tower was added to the west with the address of 115 South LaSalle Street. Both additions were designed by the firm of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and are in the modern style. The bank uses the address of the 1960 building.

Famous quotes containing the words harris and/or bank:

    You overfed the boy, Ma’am. You raised an artificial spirit in the lad, unbecoming to his station on life. This would never have happened if you kept him on gruel.
    —Vernon Harris (c. 1910)

    The English language is like a broad river on whose bank a few patient anglers are sitting, while, higher up, the stream is being polluted by a string of refuse-barges tipping out their muck.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
