A national bank's downtown State College branch is set to close its doors in 2027. Citizens Bank's location at 214 E. College Ave. will officially close on Feb. 10, according to a letter recently sent to customers. Erica Weinschenk, vice president of communications for the bank, said there will be no changes to its operating hours or services before that date, and customers will continue to be served at neighboring branch locations.
