The Mount Morris Bank building, known as the Corn Exchange Bank after 1913, is an historic bank building located in Harlem in New York City. It was designed by the noted architectural firm of Lamb and Rich and built in 1883 and expanded in 1897 as a mixed use residential and commercial building. It was originally a five story red brick and stone building with a combination of Queen Anne and Romanesque styles.[2] In 2010, the building was lowered to just the first story due to deterioration in the upper floors.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
