We recently completed work on 1 of 19 Cocktails and Raw Bar. The new bar and restaurant, located at 103 N. Maple Street in Murfreesboro, is open now. 1 of 19 is owned by Shawn and Christy Hackinson, the owners of the popular downtown Murfreesboro restaurant The Alley on Main. The Alley on Main is known for its steak, seafood, and scratch-made pasta dishes.
When the Hackinsons decided to open a cocktail bar around the corner from The Alley on Main, they knew exactly who to call.
Back in 2005, local real estate icon Bob Parks had the vision to create flex office space in Smyrna, which was mostly unheard of in Smyrna and Rutherford County at the time.
He worked with Dow Smith Company on his idea, and Seven Oaks Business Park was born.
Don’t make a million-dollar mistake.
In construction, even minor errors can be costly. And they add up quickly if you’re not careful.
We know you’re excited to start building, but rushing to the ground-breaking ceremony before you’re ready will catch up with you later. It’s critical in any project to get all of your ducks in a row.
That’s why due diligence is so important.
There’s an old saying we like: You can’t pour from an empty cup. At Dow Smith Company (DSC), we believe in hard work.

There are a handful of unique challenges when designing and building for dentists, and we’ve got a long history of finding practical solutions for these projects. Though they’re generally just a few thousand square feet, dental offices need to have treatment rooms, imaging space, an inviting lobby, administrative offices and lots of distinct specifications with respect to what we call MEP—mechanical, electrical and plumbing.
Dow Smith Company designs and builds churches, medical facilities and commercial buildings. While we know these buildings are just “stuff,” we design and build them to be alive, filled with energy, activity, and purpose. A key part of any project—big or small—is making sure that our clients have the right building for their mission.
Over the last two decades, the construction industry has slowly evolved as it promotes diversity in the workplace. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most male-dominated industries in the world with women making up just 10% of the total number of workers in the industry. At Dow Smith Company, we understand that women bring tremendous value to our team. Their fresh perspective allows us to find solutions to challenges we might not ordinarily find, and their attention to detail is exemplary.
At DSC, one of the key stations on our Flywheel is what we call the Exceptional and Unique Experience—one of our three defining “uniques.” This is not just a concept; it’s a critical part of our process that keeps the Flywheel turning and fuels the enduring success of DSC.
Construction at Allied Behavioral Health Solutions was completed months ago. But when we’re building a project, we’re also building a relationship. And in that sense, our work is never finished. After the Allied staff moved in, they realized they needed assistance with additional tasks. That’s when we reminded them that no job is too small for us.
Designing and building a new church facility or undertaking a significant renovation is a monumental endeavor, representing a profound commitment to ministry and a strategic investment in the future. Thoughtful planning is paramount to ensure the new space effectively serves its purpose, fosters spiritual growth, and remains relevant for generations.
