Leavitt-Hovey House Ribbon Cutting

 

Greenfield Savings Bank (GSB) hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, to celebrate the completion of the renovation of the historic Leavitt‑Hovey House at 402 Main Street. The event marks the official unveiling of the restored 1797 landmark, which will soon serve as the new home for GSB’s Wealth Management & Trust, Residential Lending, and Cash Management departments.

The ceremony brought together community leaders, local officials, project partners, and GSB board members and employees to recognize the significance of the project and the Bank’s investment in downtown Greenfield.

“The Leavitt-Hovey House stands as a reminder of Greenfield’s past, and now it will play an important role in our future,” said Peter Albero, President & CEO of Greenfield Savings Bank. “This renovation exemplifies our investment in the community and our belief in the strength and potential of Franklin County.”

The nearly $7 million renovation preserved the building’s historic character while adding modern systems, accessibility improvements, and expanded workspace. GSB partnered exclusively with local contractors and tradespeople throughout the project.

 

“This is a special moment for our team and for the clients we serve,” said Steve Hamlin, Senior Vice President of Wealth Management & Trust. “The Leavitt-Hovey House provides a welcoming environment that reflects the care and attention we bring to every relationship.”

 

“As we open the doors to this extraordinary building, I’m reminded of how much thoughtful design and craftsmanship can inspire confidence,” said Cassie Morrey, Senior Vice President of Residential Lending. “The attention to detail throughout the Leavitt-Hovey House mirrors the care we bring to guiding our customers on their own home ownership journeys.”

 

Retail banking services in Greenfield will continue to operate at the 400 Main Street branch.
