SANTA ROSA, Calif. — It's a new day for Redwood Credit Union as 155 of its 300 staffers recently moved into their newly remodeled corporate facility here. The 104,000 square-foot facility, which previously served as headquarters for State Farm Insurance and Health Plan of the Redwoods, houses a variety of departments ranging from lending, business and investment services, to the telephone member service center and executive offices in addition to walk-up and drive through ATMs.

In a nod to environmental responsibility, RCU used recycled and renewable materials, and energy-efficient systems throughout the building, in an effort to receive a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design or "green" certification, which is currently pending.

The facility also features a 250-seat community room, designed to comfortably accommodate member, employee and community events, as well as provide a space for nonprofits to meet and host events.
