After working with FSB&T to remodel and expand their downtown Vermont Street branch, CP&A began a planning and design process for a second, larger branch bank facility in Lawrence.  CP&A provided preliminary site design services to assist FSB&T in evaluating site development options before finalizing the contract to purchase the new property.
 
CP&A worked closely to identify the new building program and prepared floor plan options.  With FSB&T approval, CP&A proceeded with construction documents, solicited three (3) bids and administered the construction with the successful general contractor.
 
The exterior building design includes a distinctive entry tower.  The tower not only draws the attention of drivers on adjacent streets, but also provides the visual connection with the Vermont branch through a similar roof shape, materials and colors.  The other exterior building enclosure materials were selected for their appearance, longevity and minimal maintenance.
