Righteous dollar bills: The 18 creditors that lost the most in the Diocese of Helena’s bankruptcy
The Diocese of Helena has contracted with a development firm to build nearly 450,000 square feet of retail, commercial and hotel space near the Interstate 15 and Custer Street interchange.
Trinity Restoration LLC is offering retail sites in the future Trinity Center, located at the end of Sanders Street on property owned by the Resurrection Cemetery Association. Project plans include space for a hotel, restaurants, a movie theater, retail stores, landscaped parking, water features, a dog park and walking trails, according to the website www.trinitycenter.com.
The Trinity Center is being developed through the Diocese of Helena Deposit and Loan Restoration Trust as part of the Helena Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization. A federal bankruptcy judge approved the diocese’s plan in early March to compensate more than 360 alleged sexual abuse victims.
The diocese, which oversees more than 60 parishes and 35 missions across western Montana, was one of nearly a dozen dioceses to file for Chapter 11 over the last decade.
