Williamsburgh Savings Bank

19th century headquarters at 175 Broadway

The Williamsburgh Savings Bank was a financial institution in Brooklyn, New York, from 1851 to 1986. The bank was incorporated in 1851 under legislation passed by the New York State Assembly.[1] The bank continued to operate until a series of mergers brought the bank into the HSBC group late in the 20th century.
