Charter One opens new branch in One Kennedy Square

Charter One has relocated its downtown office from 1001 Woodward to One Kennedy Square. In doing so, the bank has maintained its Campus Martius frontage while increasing its public access. The branch, which opened last week, was initially slated to open in September, but the date was pushed up to coincide with the park's PGA activities.

"We absolutely wanted to stay in Campus Martius and to upgrade our facility," says Sandra Pierce, Charter One's Michigan president. "We wanted to be in that Class A building -- it's really strategically located, there's so much traffic...this is our main office branch."

The Kennedy One branch office is 5,955 square feet and has five teller windows, six offices and a conference room. The adjacent lobby has an additional office and a large conference room that can be used for after-hours meetings with customers and the community. There is also an ATM, while a second ATM and a night depository are located on the exterior of the building for 24-hour usage.
 
Charter One at Kennedy One is open 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday.
