CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa–Corda Credit Union has made a $50,000 donation to NewBo City Market’s Next Level Local capital campaign, which is seeking to add a second floor and various amenities to the building.
Corda Credit Union representatives presented an oversized check for the donation to market leadership during a Rock the Block event.
The expansion project is being funded by the $6 million capital campaign that 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, according to the organization.
Construction is slated to begin in January of 2025 and finish in the summer.
