The Planters Bank Building is a historic commercial building at 200 East Hale Street in downtown Osceola, Arkansas. It is a Classical Revival brick and mortar structure, designed by Missouri architect Uzell Singleton Branson and built c. 1920. It is one of the most architecturally sophisticated buildings in the city, which is otherwise dominated by vernacular early 20th-century commercial architecture. It has housed banks for most of its existence, although it briefly served as city hall in 1943–44.[2]
