The Federal Reserve Bank Building is a historic commercial building at 123 West Third Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a three-story Classical Revival masonry structure, built out of concrete faced with limestone. Its main facade features a central entry set in a recess supported by four monumental engaged Doric columns. The entrance surround includes a carved eagle. Above the colonnade is a band of metal casement windows, with a low parapet at the top. The building was designed by noted local architect Thompson & Harding and built in 1924. The building was occupied by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Little Rock Branch until 1966.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
