Renovation work on the former Markey Paper building in Souderton is nearing completion and has become the new home of Everence Financial®.
The Penn Ave. Structure built in 1910 was originally used as a clothing manufacturing company and has also been home to a photography studio and warehouse facility.
The renovation project reflects a broad transition in the Souderton area from manufacturing and warehousing to professional services.
“This renovation project represents our long-term commitment to its members and the entire Souderton community,” said Randy Delp, Managing Director in Souderton.
“We look forward to having a welcoming, inviting space for our clients and our team members. It’s an extra bonus that we can be a part of downtown Souderton’s revitalization.”
In addition to historic value, environmental impact was a strong consideration in deciding to renovate an existing structure instead of building a new facility.
It was also a priority to maintain the building’s character, while still updating it with the technology and conveniences to best serve members.
The move, which took place in late August, relocates a growing team of 15 staff members who serve individuals, churches, and organizations throughout the greater Indian Valley.
