North Shore Bank, FSB is a federal savings bank based in Brookfield, Wisconsin. As of 2021, the bank operates 46 branches: 44 in Wisconsin, and two in Illinois under the name Illinois State Bank.[1]
History
The bank was founded in Shorewood in 1923 as the North Shore Building and Loan Association.[2][3] Its Shorewood branch has been located at 4414 North Oakland Avenue since 1941.[4] The following year, the organization's name was changed to the North Shore Savings and Loan Association.[5]
The bank's first branch opened at 9115 West Oklahoma Avenue in Milwaukee in November 1972.[6] Another opened at 6924 North Santa Monica Boulevard in Fox Point in February 1974.[7] North Shore became the first savings and loan in Wisconsin to operate a branch office inside a drugstore when it opened its first Waukesha branch at Stein Drug Store, 200 West Main Street.[8]
By 1981, the bank had four locations in Shorewood, Waukesha, Milwaukee, and Brookfield. It announced plans to acquire Frontier Savings Association, a bank based in Green Bay, in 1982.[10] After receiving regulatory approval, Frontier backed out of the merger, and North Shore acquired only the bank's Two Rivers branch. At the end of 1983, North Shore acquired Southeastern Savings Association (Wisconsin) and its six locations in Racine County, bringing the bank up to 17 branches.[11][12]
Another planned merger was announced in 1987 with Frontier, which had since been renamed Sunrise Savings and Loan Association.[13] North Shore acquired Sunrise on December 31, 1987, adding its 10 locations to North Shore's 19, with the new bank holding over $700 million in assets.[14] The organization changed its name to North Shore Bank, SSB (State Savings Bank) in early 1989, at the height of the S&L crisis that made the "savings and loan" name unpopular.[15][16] Another name change was made in 1990, when the bank federally chartered and became an FSB (Federal Savings Bank).[1]
In 1995, North Shore acquired Badger Bank and its six Milwaukee-area branches.[17][1] [18] North Shore purchased TCF Bank's three locations in the Fox Valley surrounding Appleton, converting them into North Shore branches on September 20, 1999.[19] In 2000, the organization acquired Marquette Savings Bank.[1]
North Shore expanded into Illinois with the acquisition of Illinois State Bank in November 2005.[20] The two Illinois branches continued using the Illinois State Bank name while under North Shore, and are currently in the process of being sold to Royal Financial, Inc.[21][22]
Federal regulators gave North Shore ownership of Maritime Savings Bank after it was shuttered in 2010, acquiring its nine branches, mostly in the Milwaukee area.[23] After the similar 2013 failure of Banks of Wisconsin in Kenosha, North Shore acquired the bank's two locations and fixed assets.[24] In 2016, the bank acquired Layton Park Financial Group Inc., the parent company of Layton State Bank.[25]
