Key Bank is leaving downtown Noblesville. In a surprise announcement, bank officials revealed they will close their Courthouse Square location by May 31. The building at 110 N. 9th St. has been home to a banking institution for more than 100 years.
The closing is one of 16 Key Bank locations that will be closing in central Indiana. Another Key branch on Pebblebrook Drive will also be leaving Noblesville. The sudden announcement of the closings is brought about by a change in customers’ banking habits, with more favoring online banking.
With the departure of Key from downtown, First Merchants Bank at 830 Logan St. will be the only bank on the Square.
The real estate at 110 N. 9th is owned by Keybank National Association, which lists Albany, N.Y. as its business address. There was no immediate indication of what will become of the building. It was built as a bank about 1910, and home to American National Bank, a locally owned firm, for decades prior to the wave of bank mergers that began in the 1980s.
Key branches at 480 Sheridan Road and in Hamilton Town Center will remain open as well as several other locations in Hamilton County.
Thank you for writing and producing this desperately needed Noblesville news paper. I read it most mornings and am grateful for it. I would like to add a correction to this story and that is that Horizon Bank does maintain a full service retail banking office right off of the square at 44 South 8th Street. So there is at least one more banking alternative for downtown residence and business to the aforementioned bank on the square.
Again thank you for your hard work and please feel free to visit our office at any time for exceptional service and sensible advice.
