Kern House Will Not Become Bank Branch

The Express-Times Courtney Lomax reports (read the full article here) that the Kern House will not be the site of a Merchants National Bank branch. Instead the Bank will be using a property located at 42 South Broad Street.

There was contention between the Moravian Historical Society, who wanted to lease the Kern Building to have improvements made while generating income to be used later for educational programs there, and the School District who contends they sold the building to be used by the Society not a commercial business.
