Provident Bank Facelift Complete

If you've driven down Ridgedale Avenue in recent months, you've seen the construction at the Provident Bank. Now, the scaffolds are gone and the sprucing-up process is complete.

Lucio Valerio, area manager at Provident, said that work on the facade and drive-in window started in February and was recently finished. Valerio said there was also an extensive interior renovation and expansion. 

"[It] is approximately three times the size of the previous branch," Valerio said, adding that the bank is more user-friendly now, with "Conference rooms, two private offices, two platform desks on the main floor, five teller stations and a customer reception area with refreshments."

In other words you'll be able to have a cup of coffee while you talk to your banker in a more private space than was previously available.

Provident is running a sweepstakes as part its grand re-opening celebration. If you'd like to take a chance at winning a $2,500 travel voucher, stop by the Morris Township branch through July 30.
