(La Porte, IN) – A ground breaking was held today at New Porte Landing.  The dirt was moved for the new Grand Heritage Federal Credit Union location at Truesdell Avenue and North Madison Street.

 

Once construction is complete, the financial institution will relocate from its present facility at 201 Koomler Drive in the Thomas Rose Industrial Park.  Construction is scheduled for completion during the first or second quarter of next year.

 

“Grand Heritage Federal Credit Union is celebrating more than just a groundbreaking.  We are celebrating a commitment to our members and our community.  This new location represents our investment in the future, a place where we can better serve our members and new members,” said CEO Jeri Hesters.

 

The new building will contain over 3,100 square feet of space and includes an additional 990 square foot drive-thru canopy with three lanes on the one acre site.

 

Other features will include five private offices, a welcoming lobby with a teller line, a conference room, workroom, breakroom, and restroom, all designed to enhance staff efficiency and member experience, officials said.

 

“It’s a wonderful thing to have a business set up shop in our community, but it’s all the more special to watch them excel and expand,” said Mayor Tom Dermody.
