The Exchange State Bank at the corner of Main and 1st Sts. in Grand Meadow, Minnesota, United States, is a Prairie School style building that was built in 1910. It was designed by architects Purcell & Elmslie. It has also been known as the First American State Bank. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
It is significant as the first major joint project of Purcell and Elmslie, and one of few commercial buildings by them. William Gray Purcell designed the building and George Grant Elmslie created the ornamentation of terra cotta, glass mosaic and wood. The building has been regarded as an "excellent" example of Prairie School architecture, implemented in brick.
