Around Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Koto Branch

Across the street is the Hankyu Kotoen Station building.

If you go this way, you’ll find the Kotoen police box, and the road leads out to Yakujinsan-suji.

In the opposite direction, there’s a building that houses McDonald’s and other shops.
The branch will move to the Nishinomiya Branch along Route 2

It looks like the branch will relocate to the Nishinomiya Branch along National Route 2 and operate together there as the Kotoen Branch.
Finally
There was a time when many banks were merging, but now even individual branches are being consolidated. With cashless payments becoming more common, plus AI and all kinds of other changes, banks will probably continue to gradually scale down.
