ROSEDALE, Texas–Education First Federal Credit Union has cut the ribbon on its renovated branch here. The project was led by NewGround.
Originally designed and constructed over 20 years ago to replicate the credit union’s Lamar University branch design, the remodeled 8,500-square-foot freestanding branch now incorporates the branded elements of Education First FCU’s headquarters and Laurel Street branch.
With a new exterior entrance and doors, the building features painted brick to match the headquarters building across the street. Updated interior elements include a new cash bar that replaces the traditional teller line, a new hospitality bar, and all new office furniture. All HVAC and lighting systems were also upgraded.
NewGround provided architecture, engineering, construction management, environmental graphics, and digital signage services for the Rosedale branch renovation.
Steve Clark, Regional Vice President of Business Development at NewGround, attended the ribbon cutting ceremony alongside numerous Education First FCU board members, management, and staff.
“We are proud to partner with Education First FCU on the remodel of their Rosedale branch in Beaumont, and we can’t wait to see how this transformation helps them master the power of their space,” said Kevin Blair, president and CEO at NewGround.
