NuUnion Investing $3.4 Million for Rehab of Abandoned Hotel

NuUnion Credit Union is seeking local and state tax incentives to rehab a vacant hotel on 6501 S. Cedar St. Rehabbing the 5,000 square foot space would cost an estimated $3.4 million.

According to excerpts from the article:

"We knew we needed some higher visibility, so that was one of the selling points of the property," NuUnion spokeswoman Danielle Brehmer said. "And it's a main thoroughfare, so you get easy access from Cedar (Street) and Pennsylvania (Avenue)."

Plans call for the credit union to relocate its nearby branch at 438 E. Edgewood Blvd. to the site, Brehmer said. The 3,500-square-foot office employs 14.

The new branch would include a drive-up lane and have more space for additional employees and services, Brehmer said. Planning on the project is ongoing, although some site work could start this year if the incentives come through.
