DENVER — Delegates and media arriving Monday for the start of the Democratic National Convention will be greeted by a credit union awareness message plastered on a banner atop the new headquarters building of the Credit Union Association of Colorado/Wyoming.
The message: "The 89 Million Credit Union Members in the U.S. Welcome You to Denver."
A spokeswoman said the banner idea was a way "of reminding the participants" of the industry's economic role. The new $3 million headquarters building, located four blocks from the state capitol, was ready for business over the Memorial Day weekend with grand opening ceremonies held last night.

Association officials noted the facility is a "classic piece of architecture" in the capitol zone considering the building is a renovated 1929 apartment building known locally as "Casa Grande." The association said it spent over a year gutting and replacing the interior of the building to both preserve its 1929 charm and "build state-of-the-art technology within the skin of the old building."
