Regions Bank Kilgore Branch Relocation

Regions Bank planned a significant renovation and expansion of its Kilgore branch at 910 North Kilgore Street, Gregg County, Texas. The filing, registered with TDLR in May 2019, describes the project as an addition to an existing building with an estimated cost of $1,044,398. The work involved demolishing much of the current structure, including the drive-thru canopy and concrete islands, while renovating the remaining portion and constructing a new addition, roof, drive-thru lanes, and remote ATM.

The total square footage for this specific construction scope is 2,223 sq ft, resulting in a computed cost of $470 per square foot. This figure is above the county median of $129 per square foot for similar filings in Gregg County. The scheduled build window of 92 days was shorter than the county median of 181 days for additions to existing buildings.

Design and Funding

BDG Architects, LLP served as the design firm of record for this project. The firm has registered six other projects with TDLR, totaling $7,958,000, including other Regions Bank locations in Houston, Tomball, Austin, and Missouri City. The Kilgore project is privately funded on private land for private use. The owner of record is Regions Bank, represented by John Earley.

The project was registered with TDLR in May 2019 with a target completion date of November 2019. The construction start date listed in the filing was August 2019. However, no plan review or inspection has been recorded since registration, so whether the project proceeded to completion is not confirmed in the public record.

Other construction projects registered in the Kilgore area include renovations for Walmart, Five Below, and Kilgore RC, as well as new construction for Southern Supply House and Camfil USA INC. The Gregg County unemployment rate was 5.2 percent in July 2026, higher than a year earlier. Readers should note that the TDLR record reflects registration and planning data rather than current operational status.
