The largest building was the 205,000-sf Wells Fargo building at 1500 Broadway in Downtown Lubbock. The 15-story building, built in 1968, is a landmark in Lubbock, which has a population of more than 200,000 people. The smallest bank building to be purchased was a 6,000-sf bank building in Runge. Also included in the sale were buildings in Robstown, Rosenberg, Alice, Kingsville, Fairfield, Gonzales, Navasota, Edna, New Braunfels and other small towns in south Texas.
In many of these towns, the Cummings-Baccus bank building is the largest office structure in the entire community.
