Bank Road was once the residential artery of the financial leaders that held sway in colonial Lagos. Its very name reflects the successive chief executives and directors of Nigeria’s first generation banks, First Bank, Union Bank (then Barclays Bank) and United Bank for Africa, who resided on the road for several decades. FBN Holdings PLC, to this day, maintains a large guest house on Bank Road. The road also has the distinction of bearing the legacy of one of Nigeria’s early military heads of state, the late General Murtala Mohammed, after whom it was renamed and remains one of Ikoyi’s most important streets anchoring wealth, power, and heritage in one continuous narrative. Aria will stand at the heart of this narrative, not just paying homage to the prestige of Bank Road but redefining it for a new generation of discerning homeowners and investors.
