Project Details

The headquarters and personal banking center for Baxter Credit Union (BCU) in Vernon Hills are located in two separate buildings with a shared surface parking lot in between. From an operational standpoint, employees often need to walk 300 feet from one building to the other across the parking lot. The client wished to create functional outdoor gathering spaces and a safer path of travel between the two buildings. Pamela Self Landscape Architecture developed a pedestrian and vehicular circulation scheme that is safe for all, with inviting planting and plaza spaces that showcase what a contemporary workplace experience can be.
