The Guaranty Savings and Loan Association was a savings and loan with its Birmingham headquarters at 2012 2nd Avenue North. The president was J. T. Bostick.
In the summer of 1948 the savings and loan moved into a new, modern building designed by Warren, Knight and Davis architects. The exterior was clad in dark-green marble with mirrors, glass and photo-murals dominating the interior walls. Floors were black and red terrazzo. Daniel Construction was the contractor for the $100,000 project, which included two floors of offices and a mezzanine.
In 1971 the building was expanded to the east, taking up half the site of the former Garrett Building.
