Gibraltar Savings and Loan

Gibraltar Savings and Loan

Gibraltar Savings and Loan Association was a bank operating in California, Washington, and Florida. It was organized as a savings and loan.

Its headquarters building was built in 1951, designed by William Pereira.

U.S. federal regulators seized assets of the bank in 1989. At the time, it was on of the largest insolvencies in U.S. history. It was later acquired by Security Pacific National Bank, the fifth largest bank in the United States. [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0CE3DD143FF93BA15755C0A966958260]
