One of several buildings along the Bund designed by British architecture firm Palmer & Turner, the Yokohama Specie Bank was built in 1924 mixing neoclassical design with art nouveau touches. It was the first Japanese-owned financial institution along this 'Wall St of the East'. Today it's occupied by Chinese bank ICBC.
