Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis |
Branch directors oversee the operations, and review and approve the operating policies of the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank's Helena office to assure that its functions are managed competently and in the public interest. In addition, directors contribute their perspectives on regional economic conditions as part of the Federal Reserve's monitoring of economic conditions throughout the country and the formulation of monetary policy.
The Federal Reserve Branch Bank in Helena adopts the city's historical theme of using strong, striking colors in its design. Cherry-red or orange-red bricks contrasted with buff limestone is the dominant theme expressed by the historic structures of old Helena, and the bank continues that theme. Perhaps most striking, though, is the green patina of the building's copper roof.
