New Bank Coming to St. Davids
A new PNC Bank building is being built in St. Davids Square shopping center.
A PNC Bank is being constructed in the St. Davids Square shopping center in front of Bed, Bath and Beyond.
The bank has received land development approval from Radnor Township and Zoning Hearing Board approval for the building signs, according to the township.
PNC still needs to go in front of the township's Design Review Board for approval of its signs.
The bank, which has branches in Devon and in the Giant supermarket in the same shopping center, is expected to open in 2013.

Ah, wonderful! Just what we needed here... another bank! I've lost count... seems about at least a dozen strung out between Bryn Mawr and Devon. Can we soon expect another bunker in the space vacated by Taco Bell? Oh, and don't forget to clear out your mailbox in preparation for yet another round of "free checking" offers.

No,no: the Taco Bell lot is for 1/2 of an excessively massive and hideous new Rite Aid. It's the one our commissioners decided we were in such desperate need of that they stepped all over zoning that was designed to keep Wayne pedestrian friendly and more traditional, architecturally.
There IS another new bank going up, but that's in the front parking lot of Whole Foods in Devon. Who needed all those parking spaces at Whole Foods anyway?

A bank in the Whole Foods parking lot? How appropriate...you simply deposit your Whole Paycheck in the bank and then take it out again and give it to Whole Foods.

Ideally, there will be a Starbucks concession inside the bank.

While the pharmacy at Aberdeen might not be the highest and best redevelopment I applaud the toxic cleanup that will finally be done at that site. It has been way too long in coming.

Does anyone know how thorough and intense the developers are required to be? Who will be in charge of supervising clean up of the site of the old gas stations and ensuring it's done properly?

Please provide more detail on the site clean up. Just underground fuel storage... or what?

Radnor isn't the same anymore.

This **** really pisses me off. WHY THE **** DO WE NEED MORE BANKS? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT SOMETHING, ANYTHING BESIDES A BANK THERE. LOOK AT THE DESOLATE WASTLEND THAT WAS TACO BELL! HELL I'LL EVEN GO FOR ANOTHER FROZEN YOUGURT STORE THEN ANOTHER BANK!

One might conclude that the reason is that we local residents are not properly supporting the failing (and the failed) sole-proprietorships that used to make up the bulk of the Wayne businesses.
So, with Mom & Pop gone,.. what is left is those businesses who actually have the funds to open and maintain businesses in our area; therefore you are losing the quaint businesses which defined our downtown, and we are slowly being eaten alive by Banks and Branded Retail Operations,... one corporate fruit smoothie at a time.
I miss Harrisons, Toy Town, The Cheese Shop, and especially O'Briens.News Agency.
