Carroll Community Bank closes in downtown Bethesda

Carroll Community Bank has ended a five-year run in downtown Bethesda. The branch of the Carroll County-based bank at 7126 Wisconsin Avenue has permanently closed. Accounts of customers here that were not closed have been transferred to the bank's Sykesville branch.

It's interesting that Carroll and Bowie-based Old Line Bank entered the Montgomery County market at the same time, and now Carroll has closed its branch, while Old Line was absorbed into Wesbanco Bank.
