Construction could begin later this summer on a roughly 38,000 square foot building that will serve as the new offices to the Farmington-based Citizens Bank.
One of the oldest banking institutions in New Mexico, the Citizens Bank was founded in nearby Aztec, the San Juan County seat, in 1905 and today has half a dozen locations throughout the county.
The new structure will go up off Auburn Avenue near the intersection with W. Main Street, across the way from a Four Corners Community Bank location.
The property is already the home to the Citizens Bank’s long-standing Farmington headquarters.
According to reports, the new building will be two stories in height and will feature a sleek, modern design.
If all goes as expected work on the new structure will be completed by either late 2024 or early 2025.
The bank opened its first Farmington location at 200 W. Main Street in 1950.
