WILLISTON ND–American State Bank & Trust Company President/CEO Dave Hanson is pleased to announce the bank’s donation to the Historic Old Armory Step Up fundraising initiative to restore the iconic steps of the 109-year-old building in downtown Williston.

“The Old Armory is a vital part of downtown Williston and a cherished landmark in our community for decades. ASB&T is honored to continue its investment in a legacy that will inspire generations to come.” Hanson said.

The fundraiser was launched by the Veterans and Friends of the Old Armory in an effort to restore the west staircase of the Old Armory that has deteriorated beyond repair. The Old Armory was the home of Company E 164th Infantry. It was designed by renowned architect Robert Stacy-Judd and became listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 after being retired from military armory service in 1957. The building has served as home to many organizations and became the home of Entertainment, Inc!, Williston’s community theatre organization in 1986.
