We last checked in at Sterling Bank at 26-26 Jackson Avenue in October, 2017, when Sterling had bought out the original owners, Astoria Bank.1 The branch opened in November, 2015, but shuttered its doors in September. A note was left to customers on the door, directing them to other locations in Long Island City and Woodside, as seen in the photos below.
There is no replacement for the retail space yet.
