Bank Robbed by Bonnie and Clyde

The whole building is gutted out. There's no sign up at this time.

The new owners of the former bank are remodeling it into "a pie and wine bar with a speakeasy vibe." They plan to keep the outdoor sign, as well as the indoor vault that was robbed and a hole in the ceiling made by Clyde's gun.

The bank building exterior is now fully restored, with the "Simply Hair" salon operating in the former bank lobby. I don't think the interior is open for tourism.

The bank is undergoing a restoration. Today it was being painted. Windows will be replaced and a bronze plaque installed over the next few months.

It is now a hair salon. The area surrounding it is like it hasn't changed much since the time when Bonnie and Clyde were there.

The window above the police station has been updated so that it is white lettering on glass. It's easier to read about the Bank Robbed by Bonnie and Clyde.
