STCU continues expansion with Qualchan branch opening, Airways Heights branch announcement & more...

Spokane Teachers Credit Union ( STCU ) is pushing forward with it's plans to expand their branch locations with one scheduled to open today and the announcement of another new branch just last week. And, all of this is addition to two other branches that are already in development in Downtown Spokane & Downtown Coeur d' Alene. Once all the planned branches are completed ( sometime in 2017 ) STCU will offer their members 21 different branch locations.

Here is the details of where all of the new STCU locations will be-

- Opening today is STCU's new Qualchan area branch at 4233 S. Cheney - Spokane Rd. . The branch is opening in a newly remodeled & expanded former AmericanWest Bank branch and features both indoor banking and a drive through.

- Just announced STCU will open a new branch in the City of Airway Heights. This branch will be a 3800 square foot stand alone building similar to other newly built STCU branch locations. It will have an indoor banking area and a drive through and will be located directly at the corner of US 2 & Hayford Rd. The Airway Heights STCU will open sometime in 2017 and is actually a tenant of the new Hayford Crossing commercial development which is already under construction at that same corner.

- STCU is also working on relocating it's branch inside the Crescent Court building in Downtown Spokane to a new space facing Wall St. and directly behind the new Urban Outfitters store. This branch should open for business late this year with 2900 square feet of space. It will also share a section of this new location with Rocket Bakery who is planning to also open a location at the same site.

- Although it hasn't been long since STCU opened for business at the corner of Appleway & Ramsey Rd in Coeur d' Alene they are already working another new location for the City of Coeur d' Alene. This time the new branch will join Downtown Coeur d' Alene with a newly remodeled site in the first floor of the office building at 401 E. Front Ave. . This site was once a Bank of America and has a prime location overlooking the McEuen Park. Like the Downtown Spokane branch this location will also open sometime late this year.

In addition to all the new branches STCU has also grown from having 100,000 members in 2011 to about 156,000 today. Even the amount of employees of STCU has grown overtime from 500 in 2012 to 600 once all the new positions are filled. STCU is headquartered in Liberty Lake and is a member owned , not-for-profit cooperative .
