RiverHills Bank proudly supports another Affordable Housing Project. Through partnership with RealAmerica Development, RiverHills Bank was proud to provide a $2,400,000 Permanent Loan to help bring Retreat at the Switchyard to life.

Millie Hurtt, VP, Development Officer, was honored to represent RiverHills Bank at the Grand Opening of the 48-unit Multifamily Affordable Housing project called Retreat at the Switchyard, a new affordable housing community in Bloomington, Indiana. The celebration recognized the vision, dedication, and perseverance of the development team, along with the partnerships that made the project possible. During the ceremony, Bloomington Mayor Kerry Thomson shared, "This place matters. This place is a very long dream to those who have been partners along the way, but more importantly to those who have been dreaming of a place they could actually afford, where they can be close to the many amenities that Bloomington has to offer."

Retreat at the Switchyard was developed to provide high-quality, affordable housing while strengthening the Bloomington community. The project reflects the commitment of RealAmerica Development and its partners to creating opportunities for residents through thoughtfully designed housing in a location with convenient access to employment, services, recreation, and community amenities.

RiverHills Bank was proud to support the development through its permanent loan commitment and to work alongside partners whose vision and dedication helped bring this community from concept to reality. Projects like Retreat at the Switchyard demonstrate that affordable housing is about more than buildings—it is about creating opportunities, strengthening communities, and providing a place residents are proud to call home.
