STAR Financial Bank's South Whitley ATM, drive up now open after $365,000 renovation
The ATM and drive-up at STAR Financial Bank’s South Whitley banking center has re-opened. The drive-up was expanded, and the ATM was relocated to the drive-up as part of a $365,000 renovation project at the branch.
The interior of STAR’s office is being completely renovated to provide more office space. Employees at STAR’s South Whitley insurance office will move into the remodeled building when the project is complete. A state-of-the-art computer infrastructure is being installed to improve bank operations.
The entire project is designed to provide one-stop-shopping for both bank and insurance customers as well as to provide an improved working environment for STAR team members.
The building’s basement is also being converted into a meeting space for use by area community groups. When finished, it will be able to hold approximately 40 people.
The bank is open for business during the construction. Renovations are expected to be complete in mid February.
