History

Founded as "Broadway National Bank of Alamo Heights", the company began in a small store front in Alamo Heights, Texas in 1941, by a military officer, Col. Charles E. Cheever, Sr., and his wife, Elizabeth Cheever.[3][4] The primary purpose was to serve military families who were migrating to the Central Texas area.[5]

In 1959, it was the first San Antonio bank to establish a mortgage lending division, and it was the first to extend its banking hours to help working families.[4] In 1984, the bank began to offer a successful Wealth Management Division.

In April 2016, Broadway Bank announced the appointment of David Bohne as its new chief executive officer. Bohne replaced longtime CEO Jim Goudge.[6]

Current operations

Broadway Bank is still owned by the Cheever family.[3] At the end of 2018, the bank had $3.65 billion in assets, with $3.15 billion in deposits, and was the third-largest bank in San Antonio.[1][7]
