With spaces designed for individual, group, and telehealth therapy, along with critical resources such as an on-site pharmacy and real-time care access, this facility addresses urgent mental health and addiction crises.
The Soaring Rail, LLC project in Bristol, Indiana, earned another Award of Excellence. This 500,000-square-foot industrial space offers premium warehousing with direct rail access. Designed for scale and efficiency, the facility plays a critical role in supporting the region’s logistics and industrial growth.
Finally, Ancon’s work on the American Containers, Inc. project garnered an Award of Merit. The project involved a 36,375-square-foot expansion to an existing 160,000-square-foot facility in Plymouth, Indiana. The warehouse features cutting-edge designs that combine functionality with aesthetic appeal, emphasizing a bright, modern, and clean environment.
