Body:
Some of us had heard in early December from neighbors in the Haverford Township side of Bryn Mawr that Dunkin' Donuts was closing and the land was being converted to a bank.
Banks provide needed consumer services, but they are somewhat static in nature. So, the Planning Commission Agenda for 1/8/08 (a TUESDAY) contains this application from Citizens Bank to convert the Dunkin Donuts to a new bank branch for them. This is a small lot in a very congested part of town (Staples, Viking, former Barnes and Noble site, First Trust Bank, AM/PM Sunoco gas station, StarBucks).
Please note that Citzens bank has a branch in Ardmore:
Here is the notice off Lower Merion Township's website, please note a waiver of tentative sketch plan is requested and if you have an interest in Bryn Mawr you may wish to make some time to attend this meeting and express your views:
