Now the following has some buildings which are used commercially, business
builings. Most of these are bank buildings and the reason I chose them is because they are probably the most impressive and
largest buildings we have here in the valley.
|
Here is the Texas State Bank. The newest from the 3 tall skyscraper type bank buildings. Here is one of
the McAllen icons which show we will eventually be a large successful city, just given the time. The building has a great
look to it and I'm sure it will stand for many years to come.
|
And here is I believe the tallest of the 3 buildings. The Chase Tower. Here is my very own bank's building,
yes, I trust my money with chase. I like this building especially because I remember it the most from my childhood and just
it's white/yellow look with it's dark windows. I've also been inside, it's a very nice building overall, inside and out.

And here's the last of the 3 towers here in McAllen, The IBC Bank. I always remembered this one as the "big
black box tower". This one is more different then the other 2 not only because it's black, but it had the widest look to it
then the other 2, while the chase one is tall and slim, and the texas state one was rounded and bulky, this one was just mroe
rectangle like and of course, much darker. These 3 will always be our pride and show we soon will become large.
|
Last I just wanted to show one of three of my local Best Buys. The look the building has is one that characterizes
nearly all of the plazas here in McAllen. They all have that brick look to them with that orange hinted color. Even a building
like Best Buy with it's large yellow logo and blue color can fit in our city, and all the rest do as well. A very versitile
look if you ask me.
