Needham Bank held a groundbreaking last month at the site of a new Dedham location that the bank said would provide “a more comfortable and inviting space.”

The new branch at 326 Washington St. will replace the bank’s nearby location, which has been a Needham Bank branch for the past 14 years.

“Our top priority is expanding the ways Dedham customers can bank with us – whether it’s through our new drive up window, night depository, drive up and walk up ATMs, or our state of the art branch office with a conference room for community meetings and events,” Joe Campanelli, president and CEO of Needham Bank, said in a statement. “We look forward to welcoming everyone into our new branch that will allow us to serve customers in a more comfortable and inviting space.”

Needham Bank said it has partnered with Supreme Development for the Dedham branch construction. Supreme Development President Giorgio Petruzziello is a lifelong resident of Dedham and was instrumental in the revitalization of Dedham Square, the bank said in the statement.
