The moment you’ve been waiting for is finally here. On behalf of the entire Ecklin Events staff, we would like to welcome you to Trust46 - Lancaster’s newest venue!
Situated at the intersection of East King and North Duke Streets in Downtown Lancaster, the building originally housed the Farmers Trust Company of Lancaster. In 1928-1929, architect Melvern R. Evans brilliantly re-envisioned the structure, transforming it into the brick Georgian Revival bank that stands today.
With its towering columns and intricate architectural detail, we’ve worked to preserve many of the building’s original elements to achieve the perfect blend of historic charm and modern sophistication.
A few noteworthy elements include…
Travertine Tile: The flooring between the ballroom’s wooden dance floor and outer edging was once covered in carpet. When pulled away, the original travertine was revealed. It was then carefully restored using a high-grit process, bringing back its natural beauty with a smooth matte finish.
Ballroom Chandeliers: As guests enter through our King Street entrance, they are welcomed by three grand chandeliers. To restore their original elegance with enhanced functionality, the chandeliers were rewired, fitted with updated light fixtures, and left to age a natural patina.
Upper/Lower Level Landing: Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice that our stair railings were once anchored into the floor and served as stanchions where visitors would have lined up to see a bank teller.
We are so proud to introduce this space to the community as a grand representation of Lancaster’s rich history as well as the abundant beauty that our city continues to offer locals and visitors alike.
Ideal for weddings, photoshoots, corporate events, and more, Trust46 overflows with an elegance and all-encompassing grandeur that is truly timeless.
Trust46 is officially accepting bookings beginning in October, 2024. For booking information, please visit our website or email u
