The office portion includes two floors dedicated to executive offices and operational teams, while the retail space serves a new full-service branch on the ground floor of 101 N. Wacker Dr.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis move represents much more than a change of address,\u201d said Nick Weaver, CEO and president of ABOC. \u201cIt is a testament to the success, stability, and momentum we&#8217;ve built as a bank. We&#8217;re excited to create a modern, welcoming space that enhances the customer experience, brings our employees together and positions ABOC for continued growth as we serve Chicago and our customers for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Building on more than a century of being active, the Amalgamated Bank of Chicago has grown since its founding in 1922 into a leading commercial bank that serves unions, public entities, businesses, and individuals nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>This relocation marks the latest milestone in the bank&#8217;s continued evolution and underscores its relationship-driven approach to banking, as well as its long-term investment in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>Upon opening, the new branch will feature dedicated banker offices, teller and customer service areas, an ATM, night-deposit capabilities, and an open layout that overlooks the renovated building lobby, as well as the Chicago Loop business community.<\/p>\n<p>Designed to improve accessibility and convenience, the ABOC branch offers customers a centrally located downtown destination for both commercial and personal banking needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is also an investment in our people and our culture,\u201d Weaver added. \u201cWe want our employees to feel valued, supported and at home while creating an environment that encourages high performance and close communication.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The headquarters office space was designed to support collaboration, productivity and evolving workplace technology, and includes: open work areas, private offices, meeting rooms, a boardroom, reception and caf\u00e9 spaces, and a dedicated Trust and Investment Center. Notable on-site features also include an employee amenity floor and an open lounge that provide additional gathering spaces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The move to 101 N.
