Marine Bank has opened its full-service banking center at 603 N. Indian River Drive and has brought convenient drive-thru banking back to the drive. Downtown Fort Pierce has been without a drive-thru banking option since the previous bank vacated the space in 2020. Marine Bank’s new banking center in the Harbor Professional Building is conveniently located in downtown Fort Pierce across from the River Walk Center near Seaway Drive.
Marine Bank opened its previous Fort Pierce banking center in the Seaway Plaza at 600 N. US Highway 1 in July of 2022. The location was the former home of the Padrick Chevrolet dealership in the 50s. Although it was staffed with knowledgeable bankers offering consumer and business checking and savings accounts, commercial loans, home mortgages, cash management services, and more, it did not have a drive-thru.
“We fill a void for community banking in the Fort Pierce area,” said Bill Penney, President and CEO of Marine Bank. “Our clients enjoy that they can reach a real person when they call and can be confident that a solution is always within reach. In addition to highly personal service, we offer high-tech conveniences such as mobile banking with mobile check deposit, a mobile mortgage app, a mobile cash management app, and more. And now, by offering drive-thru banking, we have removed a pain point for potential clients. We look forward to serving a greater number of local consumer and business clients in revitalized downtown Fort Pierce.”
The Fort Pierce banking center is led by Tenaya Moulton. An 18-year banking veteran, Moulton serves in a leadership position with the Fort Pierce Women’s Club, has been a St. Lucie County Chamber ambassador for seven years, and is a graduate of Chamber’s Leadership Class 38.
