Corda Credit Union has donated $50,000 to NewBo City Market’s Next Level Local capital campaign, which would add a second floor and various amenities to the building.
Corda representatives presented the giant check to market leadership at Rock the Block Friday, Aug. 16. The donation was specifically made to sponsor the construction of the market’s second level balconies.
As previously reported, the expansion project that would be funded by the $6 million capital campaign would add a second floor to the interior of the market’s Rotary Hall. The plan includes balconies for outdoor patio space, a free coworking lounge, a podcast studio, a mental health therapy clinic, a family sanctuary, a food production kitchen, a grocery store and an indoor stage for live events.
In July, the market revealed more renderings of the renovation plans. Construction is slated to begin in January of 2025 and finish in the summer.
