THE BANK LOFTS

Richfield Springs, Otsego County, New York

A once-in-a-century effort to preserve and repurpose a beloved
Main Street landmark building for a new generation

At THE BANK LOFTS, in Richfield Springs, NY, we’re not just reviving an old building. We’re investing in our community’s future.

As our project team launches our award-winning plan to bring new life to the former First National Bank of Richfield Springs, we are committed to meeting the 21st-century challenges of an Upstate New York region whose rich heritage, natural beauty, and creative vitality continue to attract thousands of visitors every year. We’re here to honor everyday life in Otsego County—a place of rolling hills, pristine lakes, generations-old family farms, and the diverse cultural attractions of nearby Cooperstown.

Sensitively preserved and sustainably retrofit to rigorous passive design standards, THE BANK LOFTS is poised to provide nine long-term rental apartments, fresh opportunities for local shopping and socializing, and proximity to outdoor adventures, family activities, world-class opera, museums, and new business opportunities—all while reducing our carbon footprint.

Come be a part of the change.
