Title Boxing Club
Franchise Owner: Kyndon Oakes
Location: 1311 Greshampark Drive, Murfreesboro, Tennessee
Project Delivery: General Contracting
Project Scope: New two-story building/boxing club fit-up
This new, two-story, high-end building for Title Boxing Club on Greshampark Drive in Murfreesboro’s Gateway district was completed in the Winter of 2018. Working as the general contractor with architect Rob McKelvey, the Dow Smith Company team began the conventional structural steel with masonry façade project in the Summer of 2017. Title Boxing Club occupies the second floor of the building and the first floor is open for retail and/or office space.
Because Title Boxing Club Franchise owner Kyndon Oakes was new to the Rutherford County area, one of his first challenges was to find a trusted construction partner. Another obstacle with this project was the location—a busy district with many other businesses nearby. Our team didn’t have much room to stage our work, store our equipment, or tie into the large number of on-site utilities. This challenge required tight supervision and close scheduling of deliveries by our Superintendent Trey King and Project Manager Joey Rhyne. Despite these obstacles, the project was completed on time and within budget for a quality result for Kyndon and Title Boxing Club.
“After meeting with Dow Smith Company, it was clear that they were the right choice for the job. Throughout the process, they were there to help guide us and make sure we were all on the same page. They are all genuine, caring individuals. We were able to work through any challenges that arose and come to agreeable decisions. They care about the client and the city that they are involved in. Even after our project was finished, they were open to helping us with anything that we needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better group of individuals and recommend them highly for any future projects.””
