Are You Happy With Another Bank Being Built in Kelly's Corner? [VIDEO]
On Monday morning, Acton Patch asked Starbucks shoppers if they were happy about the TD Bank being built across the street.
Kelly's Corner: The Banking Capital of Acton.
Within extremely close proximity from each other, you have Sovereign Bank, Middlesex Savings Bank, Northern Bank & Trust Company, a Bank of America drive-through and the soon to be TD Bank, located across the street from Starbucks at 408 Massachusetts Ave. (construction is underway).
Back in January of 2011, The Board of Selectmen approved a plan to have Bohler Engineering build a 2,900 square foot TD Bank. It offers your typical bank layout: a drive-through, basic landscaping, ATM's, parking spots and lollipops for the kids - along with an initiative to go-green by having solar arrays on the roof of the building.
