The 17,000-square-foot structure will hold the $300 million credit union’s call center, marketing, compliance and human resources offices, as well as its mortgage loan operations.

The building has been designed for energy savings through the use of floor-to-ceiling windows, opaque on the bottom for privacy and clear at the top. Light shelves designed to reflect natural light coming in the clear windows and direct it across the sloping ceilings into interior office spaces are used, reducing the reliance on electric lighting.
