From 1921 until 2008, WaterStone Bank was primarily known as Wauwatosa Savings Bank. The bank was founded by Edward F. Geske and other local businessmen in Wauwatosa on the site that is now 7615 W. State Street in the Village of Wauwatosa.
Today, the bank’s long-time Wauwatosa branch is located at 7500 W. State Street in a facility that was built in 1971.
The bank experienced significant
growth
leading up to 2008. New branch offices were opening throughout Milwaukee and Waukesha counties, additional product lines were being offered, and in 2005 the bank’s public stock began trading on NASDAQ.
