In its first market expansion north of San Antonio since opening in Austin in 2012, Broadway Bank is moving into the Dallas-Fort Worth area with the announcement of a newly formed Commercial Real Estate Lending team. Broadway Bank aims to expand its service offerings, with a long-term vision for the region to include developing into a full-service bank to serve North Texas communities.
“Due to the success of our relationship-focused banking services in San Antonio, Austin, and surrounding markets, Broadway Bank is expanding our footprint and cementing roots in the Dallas market,” said Broadway Bank CEO David Bohne. “North Texas is ripe with growth and opportunity, and it’s time for us to put down permanent roots. We’re starting strong with Commercial Real Estate Lending while we prepare to offer more services and hire more local banking experts.”
The Dallas team is led by three banking professionals individually bringing strong expertise to the table: Steve York, Tiffany Smith and Ben Brandenburg.
- York, New Market Integration Executive, has been in the banking industry for 40 years and joined Broadway in 2012. He is a member of the advisory board and on the executive committee for the Banking Program at the Texas A&M University Mays Business School, and he is also active in the Texas Bankers Association. A long-time member of the bank’s executive team, York relocated to Dallas at the beginning of 2022 to lead the expansion efforts.
- Smith, Senior Vice President of Commercial Real Estate Lending, brings more than 18 years of banking experience in the Dallas market with various positions in commercial lending.
- Brandenburg, Senior Vice President of Commercial Real Estate Lending, brings 14 years of banking experience to the team with more than 11 years spent as a Commercial Real Estate Loan Officer.
“This talented and experienced team has cultivated a strong network of relationships leading to consistent and creditworthy production in the Dallas market,” said Bohne. “They will play a key role in introducing Broadway Bank’s brand of personalized modern banking to new customers in the region.”
Broadway’s first branch is conveniently located in the Park Cities area at 8201 Preston Road, Suite 715, along the Dallas North Tollway. Said York about the new space, “I am excited to be a part of this great team of local bankers in North Texas. Now that we’ve secured prime office space, we’re looking forward to building new relationships with the community and expanding our financial services.”
Since its beginnings in 1941 as San Antonio’s first suburban bank, Broadway National Bank has always been a trendsetter, introducing innovative financial policies which help shape modern banking. Today, Broadway is the largest independently owned bank headquartered in San Antonio. In 1996, Broadway Bank began to acquire financial centers in the Texas Hill Country. In 2005, the bank acquired Balcones Bank with Financial Centers in San Marcos, Wimberley, Kyle and Buda, starting its strategic move northward. Just a few years later in 2012, Broadway Bank announced its entry into the Austin region and today has over 30 banking centers in the South Central and Central Texas regions, and now Dallas. Broadway Bank is still family-owned and proudly conducts relationship-driven business.
