To judge by the way the lobby is filled with flowers, this photo must have been taken on some special occasion — maybe a national holiday, or a significant event for the bank.

The bank's shell is still standing at 1710 Broadway in Gary, Indiana, and I believe that would have been the address in 1928, as that building was erected in 1924 per the county records. I have been looking through "urban explorer" videos on Youtube showing the interior of the bank building as it is now. Here is a shot of the lobby from 2017:

These videos spend some time looking at the massive round door of the vault, which may be the same vault door that you can see in the 1928 photo, in the center background behind the metal bars (still photo here).
