Bank of Highwood

This 7,500 sf, two-story retail banking facility reflects the historic architecture of the community. As a branch of Lake Forest Bank & Trust, the masonry structure serves the Highwood and Fort Sheridan communities.

The main level houses commercial banking areas as well as a community room for local organization gatherings; the second floor consists of office spaces and conference rooms for the Lending Department; and, spaces on the lower level include the main vault, restrooms, employee lounge, and mechanical rooms. The facility features a three-lane drive-thru and parking lot. Complete design services involved coordination of all engineering disciplines, interior design, executive and systems furniture, and security, banking, and A/V equipment.
