PhinneyWood is reporting that BECU is closing their Greenwood Safeway location and relocating to 551 NE Northgate Way. The new location is set to open on December 5th.
As a BECU member, I’m very happy to be getting a branch in the neighborhood, especially a snapshot ATM for depositing checks.
(If you’re at a for-profit bank, you really should consider a local credit union like BECU or Salal…)
My entire family is thrilled. We soon won’t have to drive to Lake City.
Is BECU pulling out of the Safeways in King County? The Safeway by 15th Ave NE and NE 175th will no longer house the credit union’s Neighborhood Express Center there either.
BECU members can participate in Shared Branch banking with Salal, but I tend to forget that even though I use Salal’s ATM.
With four banks and two credit unions within a block radius, there soon might be almost as many banking institutions as mattress stores on NE Northgate Way! (I kid, I kid.)
That’s nice to see. Though there seems to be some confusion/frustration in Greenwood at the moment.

I like the concentration of credit unions in Northgate, makes it easier to suggest to my friends “move your money”.
