Portland, Ore., August 9, 2018—OnPoint Community Credit Union will open a full-service branch on NE Fremont Street at N Williams Avenue on August 30. Located in the walkable and bike-friendly North Williams Corridor, the branch features a bike-thru teller window. This is OnPoint’s second new location in Portland’s vibrant eastside in 2018, having opened its Hawthorne branch in May.
“We are proud to be a part of the Northeast Portland community and look forward to welcoming neighbors—on foot or by bicycle,” said OnPoint President/CEO Rob Stuart. “The new branch is the latest example of how we continue to deepen our commitment to the region as we serve our growing membership.”
The Fremont & Williams Branch, located at 16 NE Fremont Street, is housed in the Carbon12 building, heralded as one of the most environmentally sustainable residential projects in the world. Carbon12 is currently the tallest mass timber and cross-laminated timber (CLT) building in the United States.
The Fremont & Williams team will be led by Branch Manager Elaine Pratt and Assistant Branch Manager Richard Masotto. Pratt will also continue to manage OnPoint’s Lloyd Center Branch. Masotto previously served as assistant branch manager at OnPoint’s Stadium Branch and will oversee the day-to-day operations of the Fremont & Williams Branch.
To connect with its neighbors and welcome members, OnPoint will host a Grand Opening Celebration at the branch on Saturday, September 15, from 9 am to 1 pm. Neighborhood residents and businesses are invited to stop by for refreshments and giveaways, and to meet the staff.
In conjunction with the grand opening, Pratt and Masotto will present a $1,000 donation from OnPoint to the ReBuilding Center. The ReBuilding Center is a non-profit organization that works to build equitable and sustainable communities by promoting the reuse of salvaged building materials, donating materials to community-led projects, and offering educational classes and team-building events.
“Giving back and being involved in our community is who we are at OnPoint,” said Pratt. “We look forward to engaging with neighbors and area businesses to support the community and our shared growth.”
