In 2002, the Bank of America merged with NationsBank of Charlotte in a $48 billion agreement and the following year merged with FleetBoston Financial Corporation, with almost $1 trillion in combined assets. It thus became the first bank in the United States to have branches coast to coast, the fulfillment of the visionary who, 98 years before on a Monday morning at No. 1 Montgomery Avenue, San Francisco, had called out, “Vic, you may now open the front door.” Amadeo Peter Giannini crossed as many deserts, scaled as many mountains, forded as many rivers and survived as many battles as the epic builders of the transcontinental railway who bore him to California in 1869.
