A full-service Johnson Financial Group branch design, customized for the West Milwaukee location, brings enhanced security, additional services, and space for community-focused educational opportunities, supporting their commitment to customer service and community growth.

Johnson Financial Group reaffirms its commitment to the customer experience and community engagement with the opening of its new full-service branch in West Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The new building, designed by The Redmond Company, offers a broader range of services, space for community educational seminars, and client-centric features.

Located just blocks from their previous site, the newly open 4,244-sf branch represents Johnson Financial Group’s dedication to maintaining a strong local presence while broadening its service offerings for its current and future clients in the community. The Redmond Company, leveraging its experience with Johnson Financial Group, designed the facility to meet both functional and community needs. Key features of the new full-service branch with drive-thru teller stations, includes enhanced security measures with seamlessly integrated bullet-resistant glass, dual ATM access with one in the lobby and a drive-thru option, and ample space for hosting educational seminars.

The Redmond design team successfully navigated city ordinances requiring a building with two entry points to satisfy both street-front entry requirements and customer convenience. This innovative approach resulted in a structure with no discernible “back side,” enhancing its aesthetic appeal from all angles.

The branch’s expanded space allows Johnson Financial Group to host community presentations on vital topics such as first-time home buying, savings strategies, and financial assistance. This initiative particularly addresses the needs of the local population, underscoring the bank’s commitment to community welfare and long-term growth.

Building on the well-established relationship and knowledge of the brand, The Redmond Company efficiently managed finish selections and casework detailing, allowing more focus on exterior revisions and intricate design elements. This streamlined the process and ensured a high-quality result while supporting a tight construction timeline.

The recently completed West Milwaukee branch stands as a testament to Johnson Financial Group’s customer-centric approach and its commitment to local customers and neighborhood growth.
