Rainy weather didn’t stop a big crowd from gathering outside the newest location for Cornerstone Bank. The ribbon-cutting event at 1125 Pleasant Street in Worcester’s Tatnuck Square marked the successful opening of Cornerstone’s 12th location and included the unveiling of an original sculpture by a popular local artist.
“This artwork captures the cultural essence of this vital neighborhood we are so excited to serve,” said Al Ahmed, Cornerstone Bank’s EVP of retail banking. “We’re proud that our Tatnuck location features our best forward-thinking, user-friendly technology. It’s an important place for us to be at a pivotal time in Cornerstone’s growth.”
The sculpture, which lights up from the inside, was created by Aaron Stephenson and José Criollo, whose work is made of locally recycled metals and wood and can be seen in public areas throughout Worcester. The piece is topped with Cornerstone’s logo and shows four different iconic views of the city of Worcester.
Worcester Mayor Joseph Petty and Massachusetts Senator Robyn Kennedy joined other dignitaries at the family-friendly grand opening celebration, which featured a bouncy house, ice cream truck, giveaways and games.
Cornerstone Bank has been renovating the property since purchasing it last year. The full-service branch includes two drive-up lanes with ATM capabilities and state-of-the-art, drive-up, live video tellers available during banking hours. Inside, there are specialists dedicated to lending and investment consultation, available by appointment only.
The new Tatnuck Square Branch is open Monday through Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The branch is closed on Sundays.
