"We’re delighted to partner with GLP Financial Group as they invest in Downtown Farmington,” Kate Knight, Farmington DDA executive director, said. “They intend to enhance the bank building’s 1920’s character while upgrading functionality and retaining a residential and retail mix with their flagship headquarters. The schematic designs they’ve developed thus far are exciting, and we should start to see work in 2020.”
