DARIEN, CT — Bank of America this week announced the opening of a new financial center in Darien, located at 1034 Post Road in the Corbin District.
There are 50 Bank of America financial centers and about 165 ATMs in Southern Connecticut. The latest opening in Darien “further represents Bank of America’s mission to bring retail banking, lending and small business services to local clients, along with investing and personalized financial guidance from Merrill,” Bank of America said in a news release.
“Bank of America is committed to investing in local communities by helping our clients improve their financial health and achieve their goals,” added Bill Tommins, president, Bank of America Southern Connecticut. “With this financial center we are accessible when and where our clients need us, which is why we are excited to serve Darien residents with the resources, tailored guidance and in-person support they need.”
A Bank of America branch was located at 7 Sedgewick Ave. in Darien, and it closed a few years ago. There was also a Bank of America facility down the road at 1120 Post Road before the relocation with added features to the Corbin District.
The Corbin District is located on seven acres within the heart of Dartien. It is being developed by Baywater Properties, who began the project in 2019. When finished, the Corbin District will be a destination for dining, entertainment, shopping and apartment living.
First Selectman Monica McNally attended a ribbon-cutting for the new financial center last week.
“Baywater Properties has done a fantastic job of retaining businesses that so many Darien residents and visitors rely on and the Bank of America is a perfect examples,” McNally told Patch. “It was my pleasure to attend the re-opening ceremony and welcome Bank of America to its new home which is now located a bit closer to the core of downtown Darien.”
Bank of America said the new facility showcases the latest technology and has private offices to assist clients one-on-one. There are also on-site financial specialists who work with clients and provide personalized guidance.
Since 2018, Bank of America has invested nearly $9 million in Southern Connecticut through grants to local nonprofits, employee matching gifts, sponsorships and other investments, the company said.
