The groundbreaking for a new Security Bank facility was held at noon Thursday, April 22, at 55th and Leavenworth Road, Kansas City, Kansas.
Formerly the site of a car wash, the location is between a Church’s chicken and a new gas station on Leavenworth Road.
It will replace the bank building at the shopping center at 60th and Leavenworth Road. The bank has been at Sunset Plaza – Westgate Center for decades.
Expected opening of the new building is in fall 2021.
On hand for the groundbreaking were Security Bank officers and Unified Government commissioners, with the Leavenworth Road Association.
