Owner: Group Health Credit Union
Architect: Galloway Architects
Completion: October 1993
Charter combined old with new when rebuilding this architecturally
detailed credit union branch.
The 10,000 SF building was stripped to its original steel frame
and completely renovated. Throughout the building, existing structural
members were integrated with new, intricately detailed finishes.
The existing steel frame was restored as a finish surface while the
new teller line was made of a steel beam to match the architectural
detail.
A crowded site in a busy part of town made access difficult. Crews
carefully planned material deliveries and equipment staging to minimize
impact to surrounding neighbors.
Charter kept to a complicated schedule, which included relocating
credit union operations and maintaining the computer center in the
basement during the renovation.
