About The Gillespie
Step into a world of timeless beauty and sophistication at The Gillespie. With its grandeur dating back to 1929, this architectural masterpiece was meticulously designed in the Art Deco style, a hallmark of that era. Originally known as the Lincoln Bank and Trust Company, this historic gem later found its place within the National City Bank until 2005.

The Gillespie stands as a beacon of elegance, ready to host the most stylish weddings, intimate social gatherings, memorable charitable galas, and dynamic corporate events.
