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.
It’s not uncommon for people to want to lose weight, save money, and quit bad habits. What’s less common is for people to set goals and stick to them.

There’s a problem with having a design that includes every single thing you can dream of: It’s often impossible to afford.
On the latest episode of our From The Ground Up podcast, Dow Smith Company Partner and CEO Joey Rhyne explains why determining your budget early on is so important and why the Design-Build Method can help prevent costly mistakes.
It’s the Thanksgiving season. And I love Thanksgiving. I try to practice and express thankfulness and gratitude daily. Some days I do better than others.
It has been my experience that gratitude begins in our hearts and then pours into our behavior. And when we behave in a grateful manner, a healthy sustainable harvest of abundance returns.
Our core values—passion, caring, hustle, and detail—are the foundation for the work we do every day at Dow Smith Company. But did you know there's a story behind each one of our core values?

Friday, August 25th finally arrived! It may have been warm but the sun was shining! It was the day we could use our new Outdoor Amphitheatre for our first House Celebration of the school year. Our stage showcased a banner for each of the six houses, a bright red carpet, and music that was blaring the song Celebration. Staff members danced with students as the YMCA song was playing.

When Redstone Federal Credit Union needed to add an office at its flagship Murfreesboro location on Medical Center Parkway last year, they called us. Dow Smith Company’s Service and Small Projects Division was created to answer these calls and treat these projects with the same professionalism and enthusiasm that we would a multimillion-dollar ground-up building.
When it comes to establishing or expanding a commercial operation, one of the most critical decisions business owners and executives face is whether to lease a commercial space or build a ground-up facility. Both options have their merits, and the choice ultimately depends on your business goals, financial situation, and long-term vision. As a design-build firm specializing in tenant build-outs and ground-up construction, we understand the complexities of this decision and want to clarify the benefits and advantages of each option.
Not all of our clients need a brand-new, ground-up facility. Sometimes they simply need a minor renovation or an office build-out. But they need more than just a handyman with a hammer.
When designing and building a church, the process is far more than just creating a functional space. It’s about crafting a place of worship, community, and ministry that reflects the heart and vision of your congregation. But with so many moving parts—budgets, timelines, stakeholder input, and ministry needs—it’s easy for the process to feel overwhelming. That’s why we recommend starting with a Three-Day Design Charrette at Dow Smith Company. This intensive, collaborative event brings all your key stakeholders together to align on vision, goals, and practical steps before the design and construction process begins. You’re building a legacy. Let’s make it a great one.
