Alpine Bank comes down from the mountains into the city BY FREDA MIKLIN STAFF WRITER lpine Bank held a grand opening party for neighbors and customers on July 28 at its new DTC location at 4949 S. Niagara Street in Denver at Belleview Station. The Urban Egg, just down the street at 6991 E. Belleview, was on hand serving a generous breakfast buffet. Charlie Kercheval, president of the DTC location, along with Norm Franke, regional president for the front range, and dozens of bank employees, customers and neighbors were on hand for the festivities. Local radio stations flooded the parking lot with great music. The DTC location is Alpine’s third front range location, following Union Station and Cherry Creek North. The bank was founded in 1973 in Carbondale by Bob Young, who still serves on its board of directors. Located solely in Colorado, Alpine prides itself on its well-deserved reputation for community engagement. Everywhere it operates, Alpine is a major donor and supporter of nonprofits. Kercheval explained that Alpine is focused on personal relationships and community engagement. Kercheval said, “We felt this area was a place for our kind of banking here on the front range.” With 35 locations in small mountain towns, Alpine has expertise in every facet of banking.
