Governor Josh Shapiro attended the ceremonial ribbon cutting at the new Fidelity Bank Corporate Center with Fidelity President and CEO Dan Santaniello and Board Chairman Brian Cali, alongside elected leaders and community members.

"Investing in projects like this revitalize Pennsylvania's downtowns, create good-paying jobs, and ensure that communities across the Commonwealth can continue growing for years to come. My Administration is committed to this region's success and will continue making investments to ensure every Pennsylvanian has the freedom to chart their own course and the opportunity to succeed."
