The Fayette National Bank Building, also known as the First National Bank Building or 21C Museum Hotel Lexington, is a historic 15-story high-rise in Lexington, Kentucky. The building was designed by the prominent architecture firm McKim, Mead & White and built by the George A. Fuller Company from 1913 to 1914. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 27, 1980.[2]
In 2016 the building was converted into a 21c Museum Hotel. The building was reconfigured into 88 hotel rooms, a restaurant and museum space. Renovations were expected to cost in excess of $43 million.[3] The hotel opened in December 2016. It was then inducted into Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, in 2019.[4]
