Union Bank Breaks Ground on New Corporate Office

Grand Rapids, Michigan – August 19, 2021 - On Thursday, August 19th, Union Bank Board of Directors, Senior Management and Officers gathered together to break ground on a new corporate office at 670 Cascade W Parkway SE in Grand Rapids. The 6,500 square foot state-of-the-art facility designed by Ghafari Associates, is scheduled to open in the Summer of 2022.

Currently headquartered in Lake Odessa, Union Bank has been proud to call itself a truly local and proudly independent bank with roots deep in West and Central Michigan’s soil since 1934. Though over the years, the Banks’ name, leadership, staff, and locations may have changed, one thing remains the same - the commitment to working hard for local businesses and the hard-working people who make, build and grow for a living. 

“Emerging from a difficult year, we as a Bank continue to stand strong and instill hope for the many local, independent businesses we serve and the individuals who work for them. Navigating the landscape over the past year has been a challenge for many of the makers, builders and growers in our community. We are honored to have helped so many of our customers find success and growth during a difficult time, and we are committed to always finding the right solutions to our customers’ needs,” said Union Bank President and CEO, Cortney Collison. “Over the past several years, we have observed and maintained steady organizational growth and relocating our corporate office will allow us to continue that trend by expanding our footprint to assist more small businesses and their hardworking employees in reaching their financial goals.”

While the growing financial institution will be relocating its’ corporate office, this transition will have little to no effect on the Banks’ other locations. The Banks’ current corporate office does not operate as a branch, and the intention is to eventually sell the property within the next few years.
