In a year when rising interest rates kept the banking industry on its toes, two of Richmond’s biggest financial institutions in particular grabbed repeated headlines.
It will be the bank’s ninth Richmond-area branch to be put on the chopping block in the last couple years, including two others that are set to close in the coming weeks.
As it looks to shutter its branch on a prime parcel across from Scott's Addition, the banking giant also has put two additional local outposts on the chopping block.
Those two closures will join the bank’s outpost at 3501 W. Broad St. across from Scott’s Addition, which is set to go dark next month and will free up a prime piece of real estate in the city.
