TowneBank Celebrates Opening of North Ridge Financial Center 

TowneBank celebrated our 50^th banking location this fall when we opened the doors at North Ridge Financial Center on Falls of Neuse Road in North Raleigh. Triangle banking veteran Scot McAlexander serves as the market executive and leads a team of financial professionals to bring the signature TowneBank experience to the area. 

Brian Reid, Triangle president, shared his enthusiasm for the bank’s expanded presence. “We are thrilled to bring our services to North Ridge and create an added focus on the North Raleigh community. TowneBank was built on the values of integrity, innovation, and excellence. We are eager to serve the people and businesses in this community with these values at the forefront of what we do every day.”   

TowneBank completed the two-story, 15,000-square-foot building this fall after purchasing the site in 2020. The first floor houses a full-service banking center with private, commercial, and retail bankers, as well as members of the wealth management team. Towne Insurance has moved its offices to the second floor, where a team of 21 provides risk advisory and benefits consultant services.   

TowneBank is known for its high-touch banking services, with financial professionals available and accessible to businesses and individuals when and where they are needed. Branch manager Brittany Morgan joined TowneBank in 2018 and helped to open the flagship location in Greenville, NC. Kati Sessoms joins the Towne family as senior vice president and private banker at North Ridge.

The North Ridge bankers look forward to welcoming you to their new facility, (l. to r.) Ovida Joe, Connor Thomas, branch manager Brittany Morgan, Jack Neville, and Samantha Becker.

TowneBank’s commitment to the community extends beyond the newly constructed building and grounds and hiring of local professionals. In keeping with the bank’s tradition of giving back, TowneBank will present charitable donations to local organizations at an official grand opening event this winter. 

“TowneBank is committed to serving others and enriching lives in the neighborhoods we serve, including the community surrounding North Ridge,” said Scot McAlexander. “As the executive for this expanded TowneBank market, I look forward to leading my team in building relationships throughout the community. We are proud to support organizations that have an immediate and longstanding impact on the well-being of individuals living nearby and in the greater Triangle area.”
