EverBank plans to close its Riverside branch and transfer that office’s business to a new one at 4211 San Juan Ave., Suite 300, according to a regulatory filing.

The Jacksonville-based bank has operated the branch at its former headquarters building at 501 Riverside Ave. since 2007.

EverBank filed an application March 28 with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the regulatory agency for nationally chartered banks, to move the branch.

The new branch will be known as the Ortega Financial Center. It is about a half-mile west of the Ortega Bridge.

501 Riverside at Forest Street and Riverside Avenue in the Brooklyn/Riverside neighborhood.

EverBank serves most of its customers online and has few branch offices.

The bank does not have a branch at its Downtown headquarters building at 301 W. Bay St. and the Riverside office has served as its main branch.

According to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. database, EverBank has two other full-service Jacksonville offices: an Oceanway Branch at 104 New Berlin Road and a San Jose Branch at 10400 San Jose Blvd.

The bank has additional branches in Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Coral Cables, Naples, Fort Myers and Clearwater.

The city is reviewing a building-permit application for Crabtree Construction Co. of Jacksonville to renovate the almost 2,800-square-foot building, with a 728-square-foot covered drive-thru, on about a half-acre at San Juan Avenue and Herschel Street at an estimated cost of $571,951.

Gensler is the architect. 

EverBank will be the third bank that has operated at the structure.

It was first used by Florida Bank and then IberiaBank, which ResidentNews.net reported was closed in 2018.

San Juan Corner LLC, led by John and Margaret Williams, owns the property. They bought it in 2019 for $607,000 from IberiaBank.
