Santander Bank Celebrates Grand Opening of its Flagship Branch at 75 State Street
BOSTON, Oct. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Santander Bank will celebrate the official re-opening of its flagship branch today following a redesign project that has transformed the space into a state-of-the-art destination in the heart of Boston's Financial District. Located at 75 State Street, also home to Santander's corporate headquarters, the new branch features a modern interior design and encourages engaging, consultative customer interactions in a comfortable setting while also providing tools to facilitate self-service.
The Bank will hold a grand opening celebration and ribbon cutting this afternoon during National Customer Service Week where Santander executives will officially re-open the branch and present a check totaling $320,000 to City Year, a national education organization that helps students and schools succeed. As one of City Year's corporate partners since 2015, Santander has invested more than $1 million in the organization, sponsoring 11 school-based teams of City Year AmeriCorps members across the Bank's U.S. Northeast footprint, serving as a math program sponsor, supporting financial literacy sessions, and participating in multiple service events.
"Santander is committed to investing in our branch network and continuing to transform branches across our footprint into innovative spaces that make coming into the bank easy and comfortable for our customers," said Michael Cleary, co-president of Santander Bank and head of Consumer and Business Banking. "Boston is an important market to us and we have received positive feedback from our customers who have told us how much they like the inviting atmosphere of our new branch style. We are excited to celebrate City Year at this grand opening by recognizing the important work it does to help students at high-need schools here in Boston and throughout the country."
The recently renovated branch offers a welcoming environment with innovative features and local community imagery designed to improve the customer experience. There are several meeting spaces for customers to interact with our knowledgeable branch team such as a meeting "nook" with sliding doors where they can meet privately with bankers to discuss their financial needs. The branch also has a teller bar, help bar and free Wi-Fi for customers. The 24-hour ATM vestibule is available to customers after branch hours.
"Congratulations to Santander Bank on the re-opening of its flagship branch in the heart of Boston's Financial District," said Boston City Councilor Ed Flynn. "I'd like to thank Santander for being a good neighbor with its ongoing partnership and generous donation to City Year. This funding will greatly assist our children in the Boston Public Schools through tutoring and mentoring programs."
