Peoples Bank

Gaffney Construction transformed a 1959 building at the corner of Colby Avenue and Everett Avenue into Peoples Bank's Everett Financial Center. Construction began in August 2015, and the 13,000-square-foot branch opened in July 2016.

Gaffney stripped the building to its foundation and structural elements, completed seismic upgrades to the existing structure, and rebuilt it as a modern banking facility designed by Dykeman Architects.

A new 40-foot-long skylight runs above a central staircase, bringing daylight down to the basement level. The branch includes a customer lounge, two conference rooms and offices for 12 lenders. Outside, glazed brick and metal panels sit beneath a new metal canopy.
