Basellandschaftliche Kantonalbank ( (CH:BLKB) ) has provided an announcement.

Basellandschaftliche Kantonalbank plans a CHF 92 million refurbishment of its 50-year-old Liestal head office, modernising building technology, improving energy efficiency and preserving key structural elements to meet SNBS Gold and future net-zero standards. The project will add an extra storey, expand usable space to about 12,400 square metres and allow the bank to consolidate central functions while adapting the building for a flexible, future-oriented working environment.

The redesign opens more of the ground floor and outdoor areas to the public, creating a new customer zone, better access from the railway station and Rheinstrasse, and an upgraded Floragarten link as part of Liestal’s Rheinstrasse master plan. BLKB aims to award most contracts to regional firms in northwestern Switzerland, positioning the refurbished head office as a key urban gateway and community hub that enhances quality of life while reinforcing the bank’s long-term regional commitment and sustainability profile.
