Millbrook, NY, September 5, 2025 — The Bank of Millbrook opened a new branch location at 110 Route 44 in Millerton, NY, on Saturday, August 16.

In addition to its Millbrook headquarters, the Bank has additional branch locations in Amenia, Pine Plains, and Stanfordville.

Formerly the location of Elizabeth’s Jewelry and Fine Gifts, the Bank of Millbrook purchased the building for its Millerton branch in October 2024. The building has undergone a significant renovation with the architectural design by Doug Larson of Larson Architecture Works, interior design by Rebecca Hathaway Interiors, and Ducillo Construction carried out the renovation.

The new Millerton location is a full-service branch, offering both personal and commercial deposit accounts, as well as loan services and wealth management services.

Aimee Filosidis, who managed the Bank of Millbrook’s Stanfordville branch, will serve as the branch manager in the new Millerton location. Mrs. Filosidispreviously worked in banking in Millerton before joining the Bank of Millbrook. “As a community bank, we staff positions at our branches with local residents so our customers see familiar faces,” said George Whalen.

“We felt there was a strong demand for a community bank in Millerton, where decisions are made locally and customer service is paramount. The timing was right for the Bank to expand to Millerton,” said Whalen.

The Bank of Millbrook, which was founded in 1891, offers a full range of personal and business banking services with 24-hour online access. In addition, its Trust and Investment division team provides the expertise its customers need to grow and preserve their wealth. George T. Whalen Sr. was elected President of the Bank in 1938, followed by his son, George Whalen Jr.. Today, the Bank remains under the leadership of the Whalen Family, with George Whalen III serving as President and Chairman of the Board, and George Whalen IV as its Senior Vice President of Lending.

For more than 134 years, one thing has remained constant at the Bank of Millbrook: friendly and professional service and a dedication to helping the communities they serve grow and prosper.
