North Branch Construction and St. Mary’s Bank Mark Construction Milestone with Topping Off Tradition

 

St. Mary’s Bank, the nation’s first credit union, in collaboration with North Branch Construction, recently celebrated a major milestone in the construction of their new branch at 16 Manchester Street in Concord, NH. The “topping off” ceremony marks the completion of the structural framework for the new, state-of-the-art banking facility, which is set to serve the growing needs of the Concord community. In a nod to the season and both St. Mary’s Bank and North Branch Construction corporate colors, blue lights were added to the traditional fir tree mounted on the roof to mark the occasion.


The 3,700 square-foot facility will feature a full-service credit union branch, complete with two drive-through lanes, a drive-up interactive teller machine (ITM), and a spacious interior designed to support both traditional and digital banking services. These enhancements will offer greater accessibility and convenience to the members of the Concord community.


“North Branch Construction has been an essential and trusted partner throughout our build process in Concord,” said Ken, Senus, President and CEO of St. Mary’s Bank. “This build milestone is so exciting as it signifies that we are one step closer to opening our doors which will enable us to more closely serve our Concord members as well as grow our member base in this cornerstone community in New Hampshire.”


Joseph Campbell, President of North Branch Construction, also expressed his enthusiasm. “We’re proud to be a part of this important project for St. Mary’s Bank,” he said. “The new branch will provide the Concord community with enhanced banking services, and we are excited to bring our expertise in high-quality commercial construction to deliver a space that truly reflects St. Mary’s values of customer service and community involvement.”


Scheduled to open in the summer of 2025, the new branch will incorporate cutting-edge banking technology while maintaining the personalized, customer-centric approach St. Mary’s Bank is known for. The topping off ceremony signifies a significant step forward in the construction of the new branch, and the St. Mary’s team is eagerly looking forward to the grand opening in 2025.
