About this property
The Citizens National Bank building in Martinsburg, West Virginia, United States, is a former bank building, built in 1970, that was touted as "a new beginning for future development of downtown Martinsburg." The modernist style, with references to Brutalism that was then a design trend, set it apart from surrounding development in a conscious break from local tradition.
