History
The Jacksonville branch opened in 1918, the same year as the Birmingham branch, making both among the earliest branches established in the Sixth Federal Reserve District following the pioneering New Orleans branch of 1915.[3] Since its founding, the branch has relocated four times, each move into successively larger quarters to accommodate growth in its operations.[4]
A purpose-built facility at the corner of Hogan and Church Streets, designed by architects Henrietta Cuttino Dozier and A. Ten Eyck Brown, opened in 1924. The branch vacated that building in 1952 when a newer facility was constructed.[6] In 1927, the branch appointed Mary E. Mahon as assistant cashier, making her the first woman officer in the history of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.[7]
Board of directors
The Jacksonville Branch board of directors has seven members: four appointed by the Atlanta board of directors, and three appointed by the Board of Governors.[8] Branch directors provide economic information from their industries and the branch territory to the Atlanta Fed's president and head office directors, who use that information in discussing monetary policy options and making discount rate recommendations. The following people are on the board of directors as of June 2026[update]:[9]
