Apple Bank is branching out — and away — from 2nd Avenue

On March 16, the Apple Bank branch at 105 Second Ave. will close and merge with the newish outpost on Fourth Avenue at 12th Street. 

Apple had been here since 2013, taking over from Emigrant Savings Bank.

The address had a long history of various theaters and clubs... most notably the Fillmore East.

The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation (now Village Preservation) and Two Boots placed the memorial here in the fall of 2014 to honor the venue that helped launch some of the biggest names in music from 1968 to 1971.
Apple is not the only bank making moves on Second Avenue. Bank of America is clearing out of its home on the NE corner of Fourth Street for a new space on the NW corner of Seventh Street.

And Apple's departure will make three consecutive vacant spaces here between Sixth Street and Seventh Street, joining Mighty Quinn's and New Yorkers Foodmarket...
