Rockford Construction

Progress update! Grand Rapids is one step closer to welcoming bocce ball as the five new courts take shape at Silva. To be completed over several weeks, the restaurant and event venue has been collaborating with an expert team from Italy on the design of the courts as well as providing guidance throughout the construction process, ensuring an authentic playing experience. The courts are expected to open by April 7, bringing a dynamic new attraction to the city. Read more about this progress at the link below.?

Have you spotted our job trailer on 28th Street? Our team is hard at work clearing the way for a brand-new Meijer gas station and convenience store. This 5,600 sq. ft. facility will offer seven fuel pumps, four electric vehicle charging stations, 22 parking spaces, a variety of food and beverage options, seating and retail — bringing even more ease to your commute.

The Rockford team braved the (not-so) polar plunge yesterday in support of Special Olympics Michigan. Donning our hard hats, hi-vis and swimsuits, we joined SOMI at the Unified Sports & Inclusion Center to take the leap and raise funds for athletes to train and compete year-round. A big thank you to everyone who supported our team and helped us make a difference in the lives of these amazing athletes!

Detroit’s construction industry is evolving, and on #313Day, we recognize the builders, developers, tradespeople and leaders shaping the future of the industry. As Rockford welcomes Tim Bryan as vice president, Tim has seen firsthand how the city has transformed — and what’s coming next. We’re confident he’ll continue to strengthen Detroit’s construction workforce, mentoring the next generation and support projects that keep the city moving forward.

Hard work deserves a solid thank you. For #EmployeeAppreciationDay, we showed our gratitude with sweet treats for our office crew and field team. Whether keeping things running behind the scenes or getting the job done onsite, the dedication of all our team members drives our success.

The annual Women in Construction Week luncheon is one of our favorite events of the year. Hosted by the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC Grand Rapids - Chapter 194), this year’s event featured an insightful panel discussion with four industry leaders, including our very own Jennifer Boezwinkle. Each panelists shared their experiences on breaking barriers, the power of mentorship and the importance of fostering an inclusive workplace. It was an inspiring afternoon filled with meaningful conversations, valuable networking and a collective commitment to advancing women in the field. A big thank you to NAWIC for organizing such a fantastic event — we’re looking forward to next year!
