Reply To: Too Many Bank Branches

In Boro Park there’s two Chase Bank branches within feet of each other — a small city block from one another. Historically one originally was a Chemical Bank branch while the other originally was a branch of Manafacturer Hanover Trust, which was later acquired by Chemical. Then Chemical purchased Chase Manhattan Bank and assumed its name, before buying J.P. Morgan to become J.P. Morgan Chase. But all that merging occurred decades ago and yet there still there next to each other.
