The merger deal, which is expected to be completed in the third quarter, will mark Huntington’s retail entry into the Chicago market.
On Monday, Chicago-based Woodstock Institute, one of the housing, community and civil rights groups that has met with Huntington, said it’s happy with a $16 billion community development plan, which covers about 10 markets, developed in agreement between Huntington and various backers of community reinvestment efforts. Huntington announced the plan Friday.
