BIZNOTE: Waterfront Credit Union sets Morgan Junction opening date

That under-renovation building at 6419 Fauntleroy Way SW will be the new home of Waterfront Credit Union, which has just announced the date for its move. The credit union serving more than 30 unions/businesses is currently based in the 2414 SW Andover business park (near the Nucor plant). It bought the Morgan Junction building and has been renovating it. Today, Waterfront CU announced the Andover location will be permanently closed as of 5:30 pm Friday, July 23rd, and the new location will open at 9:30 am Tuesday, July 27th. (Thanks to Luke for the tip!)

West Seattle is going to have more banks than restaurants soon. In a world of online banking the list of services that these branches, other than marketing are very low.

While The Junction has added three semi-recently, all credit unions (Verity, Sound, BECU), Morgan Junction has had two financial-institution closures in the past seven months (WaFD at California/Fauntleroy, Chase branch in Thriftway), so this is the only one in that neighborhood now. In the peninsula-wide picture, this is not an addition; it’s a move from north WS to south WS. Sliced another way, this does take space that smaller businesses were using. For the other three CU’s I mentioned, two moved into new commercial space (BECU and Sound), Verity took the space that used to be home to Radio Shack. – TR
