Smile Doctors

 

Owner: Dr. Anthony Togrye
Location: Smyrna Commons, 1031 Sgt. Asbury Hawn Way, Smyrna, TN
Project Scope: Complete tenant build-out

Smile Doctors, the anchor tenant of Smyrna Commons, occupies 6,000 square feet. The Dow Smith Team was excited to work with the owner, Dr. Anthony Togrye, to not only construct the shell and core of the building, but to accommodate the build-out needs of the anchor tenant, Smile Doctors. Interior work included a large reception area, treatment rooms, exam rooms, x-ray room, equipment rooms, kitchenette/break room, restrooms, IT room, storage, compressor room and a janitor/electrical room.

This project presented unique challenges that the Dow Smith Team had to overcome. For example, this project involved two users: Dr. Togrye, the owner, and Smile Doctors, the tenant. In order for this project to be delivered on time and be successful, there had to be a lot of coordination between all parties involved in the process. Additionally, getting national corporate branding requirements incorporated into a local context and into a building that was already designed and well into construction is always a hefty challenge.

“This was the best building experience I have had. Joey Rhyne made the biggest difference for me; he always did exactly what he said he would do. There are always going to be issues in a construction project, but Joey was always quick to jump on those issues and resolve them. I will definitely be using Dow Smith Company again for my next project.”
— Dr. Anthony Togrye, Owner, Smile Doctors

“It’s a Proud Day for Rutherford County”: Journey Home Breaks Ground On New Facility

Since 2006, The Journey Home has been a resource for unhoused and disadvantaged people in Rutherford County. Several years ago, the organization’s leaders recognized that its current facility would not be able to serve the future needs of our community and they began dreaming bigger.

This week, Journey Home team members and community leaders broke ground of a two-story, 20,000-square-foot facility in Murfreesboro. Dow Smith Company is honored to be the design-builder for the project.
