MORGAN CITY, Louisiana: M C Bank & Trust Company plans to build a new headquarter office in Morgan City. The Bank is purchasing the land on Greenwood Street between 9th Street and Victor II Boulevard, one block away from its current headquarters. M C Bank’s current headquarter office is located at 1201 Brashear Avenue, where they are tenants of the building. The Bank is in the preliminary planning phases; however, it anticipates building a full-service banking center and drive-thru along with commercial, support, and executive offices and conference rooms at the new location.
“Building a new main office in the city that has helped make us who we are today is important and will allow us to continue to showcase our history,” said Christopher LeBato, President & CEO of M C Bank. “I’m excited to further our commitment to Morgan City, especially as we expand our reach to share the hometown spirit into new communities we serve across Louisiana.”
Eva Tregle, Board of Directors and Real Estate Committee Member commented, “This is a great opportunity to deepen our roots in the Morgan City community. A fresh new headquarter building for the bank is exactly what we need as we continue to build our brand. M C Bank has a rich and robust history coupled with an energized future that the Board is excited about.”
M C Bank recently opened its first banking center in Covington, which is part of a new Stirling Properties development on Highway 190. Later this summer, the Bank will relocate its Bayou Vista banking center to a larger building and open a new banking center in Metairie on the corner of Veterans and Causeway. Additionally, the bank announced that they purchased property in Lafayette on Spring Farm Road to build a banking center and office space in the Acadiana Market.
