Bank of America plans upgrades for River Rd. Bethesda branch

The Bank of America branch at 5135 River Road in Bethesda underwent a major renovation just a couple of years ago. It was so extensive, it actually required the bank to entirely close for an extended period. But with a seemingly-endless supply of new banks opening in Bethesda, bankers have never had to compete for clientele more aggressively. That pressure has led to Bank of America planning a new set of upgrades at their River Road branch.

Changes will include a new ATM, all-new interior finishes, new lighting fixtures and furniture, and a reconfigured teller counter. Bank of America says it plans to spend $130,000 on the branch update, but there is no word as of yet regarding any impact on banking hours in the months ahead. Stay tuned.

Who's the dude in the MAGA hat?
