Elevations Credit Union to take over former Blockbuster space

FORT COLLINS – Boulder’s Elevations Credit Union is opening a new office in southeast Fort Collins in the third quarter.
Elevations leased 2,000 square feet of retail at 1526 E. Harmony Road last week, according to a release from Realtec Commercial Real Estate Services, which was involved with the transaction.

“We did pull the trigger. We’re excited,´ said Dennis Paul, spokesperson for Elevations. The company will begin putting together a team to re-finish the building for its use. The building was formerly a Blockbuster video store.

Six employees will staff the branch, and financial advisors and mortgage officers from Elevations will work from the new Fort Collins office as well.

The credit union was founded in Boulder in 1952 with less than $100 in assets and has grown to become a $1.3 billion institution, according to its website.

Elevations began considering potential locations in Fort Collins because of interest from members, Paul said during an interview last month.

This would be Elevations’ second branch in Larimer County, with one located at 2495 E. 13th St. in Loveland.
