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.
Great things are happening at Dow Smith Company and I could not be more excited about our current reality, maybe even more so for the future. We have added 10 great people since the beginning of 2022—Emily Beasley, AJ Blankenship, William Green, Carlos Hernandez, Daniel Isabell, Taylor Loyal, Landon McDearmon, Ryan Sanford, Mike Speirs, and Jason Tigg. They are pillars that we can continue to build on. This has happened in spite of a labor crisis in our economy. I credit the great culture within DSC. “Culture eats strategy for breakfast”.
When leaders at the North Rutherford YMCA recently decided they needed to create more space for childcare, they wanted to do so without adding more square feet or shutting down their facility. They gave Dow Smith Company a call and met with Service & Small Projects Division PM Ryan Sanford. Ryan was able to implement a plan to take down a wall between two offices and use that space to make an area for older kids.
As I sit in my warm house on a blistery cold morning, my heart is so full from our company Christmas party. It was an event that in my mind was a true reflection of the nature and love of God. I reflect on how incredible my work family is and is becoming at DSC. In doing so we have learned and relearned some very valuable lessons that will guide us into 2023.
As I reflect on 2022, one of the first things that came to my mind was our 30-year anniversary event of hosting a construction carnival at Smyrna Elementary. What an incredible night that was for all of us. Holley Potts and Ryan Sanford did such a wonderful job of planning that event. And I am even more excited about building a new outdoor classroom that has already begun.
Are you considering building out a space for your business? Whether it’s your first time seeking a commercial home for your business or your company needs a new location to grow, here are five things you need to consider before you get started on your project.

Last week, we celebrated the life and resurrection of a friend, a mentor, a partner, and a hero.
Gary Grisham died at 67 several years after being diagnosed with cancer. He leaves a legacy as a husband of 46 years, a father, a grandfather, a veteran of the US Army, and an integral part of the history of our company.
When it came time to celebrate our 30th anniversary, we weren’t sure how to mark the milestone. Then we looked to our mission and purpose.
Dow Smith Company’s mission is to serve Christ in the marketplace. Our purpose is, simply, to serve.
So while we wanted to acknowledge our anniversary with festivities, we also wanted to serve.
At the groundbreaking for Murfreesboro Medical Clinic’s new facility in Lascassas this month, Dow Smith Company CEO Joey Rhyne took a minute to reflect on a relationship that has spanned 17 years and multiple projects.
If you're thinking about building or renovating a dental office, you've probably already realized this isn't your typical construction project. Creating an amazing dental space involves so much more than just putting up walls and installing some fancy chairs. It's about crafting an environment where patients feel at ease (even when they're nervous about that root canal!) and where your team can work efficiently to provide top-notch care.
At Dow Smith Company, our Core Values are at the heart of everything we do. This month at our annual banquet, we honored the employees who best exemplify each of these values: Passion, Caring, Hustle and Detail.
