Cardinal built the new office in the same shopping center as the previous location on Braddock Road, across from George Mason University. By adding more square footage, an open floor plan and an on-site demonstration area for online and mobile services, universal bankers can more easily engage in conversations with clients about their banking needs. The new office is open 7 days a week.

Tex Hunt will continue to lead the new office and its business development efforts as branch manager and his current staff is prepared to meet the full range of financial needs of the clientele. Staff will demonstrate online and mobile services using interactive tools and mobile devices for a realistic experience.

“We are thrilled to expand into this new banking office that will provide added convenience for our customers, " said Alice Frazier, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. “Under Tex’s leadership, this new location will continue to thrive and focus on the financial needs of those in the community, while offering a new way of banking at Cardinal.”

The ceremonial ribbon cutting included welcome remarks by Fairfax County Supervisor John Cook, Virginia State Delegate David Bulova and Fairfax City Mayor Scott Silverthorne. As part of the ribbon cutting festivities, and to underscore Cardinal’s commitment to local communities and charitable initiatives, Cardinal Bank Executive Vice President Alice Frazier presented a $1,000 donation check on behalf of the Cardinal Community Fund to FACETS and Board Chair Susan Stoney.
