A snip of a ribbon will signal completion of five months of work constructing a new state-of-the-art banking facility for the west Las Vegas area.
On Oct. 15, 2008 at noon, Ward 5 Councilman Ricki Y. Barlow will join Bank of America Senior Vice Presidents DeLois Hollinger, Ryan Jenkins and Steve McCracken, and Assistant Vice President and Banking Center Manager Berry Janssen, to celebrate the opening of a new expanded branch service center. The ribbon cutting/opening ceremonies will be held in the building’s main lobby at the new bank branch located at 920 N. Martin Luther King Blvd.
The city of Las Vegas Redevelopment Agency (RDA) contributed a 1.48-acre land parcel that made it possible to relocate the bank from a 1,380-square-foot facility impacted by the widening of Martin Luther King Boulevard. The new facility is a 4,446-square-foot bank center and allows for expanded, state-of-the-art services.
These new services include a seating area featuring a media wall with large-screen television monitors for customers to view financial news networks and publications. SecureLock safe deposit boxes providing palm print self-access technology will also be available and will enable customers to enter without assistance from bank personnel, should customers so desire. Additionally, a 24-hour ATM vestibule soon will be available, providing around-the-clock access in a secure environment for Bank of America clientele.
The new, full-service banking service center is situated on the northeast corner of Washington Avenue and Martin Luther King Boulevard, diagonally across the intersection from its previous location.
“This partnership between the RDA and the Bank of America helps realize the goal of promoting positive growth in the west Las Vegas area,” Ward 5 Councilman Ricki Y. Barlow said. “This is an area that has been traditionally underserved by the banking industry and this will fill a great need in the community.”
