Pillar Bank

In 2022, Hoeft Builders was selected as the general contractor for the ground-up construction of Pillar Bank and Caribou Coffee in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin.

Background

Pillar Bank has been serving western Wisconsin for over 140 years. The local community bank, based in Baldwin, Wisconsin, opened a Loan Production Office in Chippewa Falls in 2019. After seeing great success, the bank decided to build a full-service branch.

Project Spotlight

Core to the brand’s mission, this bank was designed with relationships in mind. The 6,000-square-foot bank fosters community connection, team collaboration, and operational efficiency within a warm, welcoming environment built to serve both customers and staff. Sharing a common lobby, Caribou Coffee is separated from the bank by a folding glass partition that allows the café to operate independently of the bank's hours.

Key Features:

  • A distinctive exterior featuring brick and stone veneer with a double-gabled roof, offering branding opportunities for both businesses
  • Two separate drive-throughs provide convenient, efficient access for both bank customers and Caribou Coffee patrons, enhancing the overall ease of the visitor experience
  • A shared, inviting lobby with a double-sided fireplace and a mix of lounge and high-top seating, designed to create a comfortable, community-centered atmosphere
  • Teller workstations and private offices, thoughtfully arranged to support daily banking operations and a range of personalized client interactions
  • Two conference rooms, including one with community access to accommodate public meetings, events, and after-hours use
  • A full-service Caribou Coffee featuring dedicated prep areas, serving stations, storage, and customer seating to create a vibrant gathering space
