A Chase Bank branch could be coming to Shrewsbury as the New York City-based institution is eyeing the site of a former barbershop.
JPMorgan Chase, the parent company of Chase Bank, has submitted a site plan and special permit application to the Town of Shrewsbury to build a 2,883-square-foot bank and a 22-spot parking lot at 67-77 and 87-97 Boston Turnpike and 21 Dewey Road.
Chase has 11 locations in Central Massachusetts, including Acton, Ashland, Auburn, Framingham, Hudson, Marlborough, Milford, Sudbury, Wayland, Westborough, and Worcester.
The Shrewsbury project would involve demolishing the now-shuttered 2,403-square-foot Perrone’s Barbershop adjacent to the lot at 103 Boston Turnpike, according to the site plan presented to the town April 2 by Kelly Engineering Group, a Braintree-based civil engineering firm representing the project.
Perrone's closed in January after 80 years in business, according to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette.
The 9.2-acre parcel next to Quinsigamond Plaza, a shopping center with stores including Trader Joe’s, Total Wine & More, and Chipotle Mexican Grill.
JPMorgan’s application comes shortly after Chase unveiled plans to open more than 160 branches in more than 30 states in 2026, including major expansion in Massachusetts.
