OTTOMAN BANK The Ottoman Bank building was built by Italian Architect Giulio Mongeri in 1926 at the intersection of Bankalar Street and Baruthane Street. The building is a corner structure in Ulus designed in the First National Architecture style. The stone building has three floors with a basement. The third floor was built as a terrace and the windows were later closed. The Ottoman Bank was first opened elsewhere in 1893 as Bank-i Osmani. Later, this building was built due to its proximity to the Station. The structure continues to function as a bank. BANKALAR STREET (NECATİ BEY STREET - ATATÜRK BOULVARI) The street starting from Ulus Square to the Osmanlı Bankası junction was called Banks Street in the first years of the Republic. When you enter Bankalar Street from Ulus, on the left are Dar-ül Muallim (Teachers' School), Lozan Palas, New Post Office, Men's Art School, Tekel Headquarters (1928), Emlak ve Eytam Bank; On the right side of the street, there are the City (Nation) Garden, the Central Bank (1931-34) built on the site of the Salt Ministry, the Ziraat Bank (1929) built on the site of Kızılbey Mosque and Tomb, and the Ottoman Bank (1926). This street, where mostly banks are located, is called Banks Street. EVKAF (II.VAKIF) APARTMENT The apartment building was built by Architect A. Kemalettin Bey between 1928 and 1930 by the General Directorate of Foundations in order to generate income through rent. It has six floors on the ground where the shops are located. Its most important feature is that there is a theater and shops on the first floor. The hall was put into service as a Small Theater in 1947. Today, the building serves as the General Directorate of State Theatres, Small Theater and Chamber Theatre.
