Cairo Town Square (above) sits in downtown Cairo, along the 72-mile North Bend Rail Trail. The square features several iron benches along with greenery and flowers as well as an iron gazebo.
The historic "Bank of Cairo” (left) was built in 1897 and is a 2 1/2 story brick structure with Romanesque and neoclassical details. The building features a unique corner entrance and housed the bank founded by Jacob Cattaui, son of a wealthy Egyptian banker and cotton plantation owner in 1987. The bank was housed in the same building since its inception in 1987 to 1931 and from 1941-1974. The Bank of Cairo is located along the North Bend Rail Trail, in downtown Cairo.
