Ancon Construction & JTS Architects out of Elk Grove, IL have recently broken ground on a multi-tenant building being constructed on North Main Street, Mishawaka, IN. The property is next to the existing La-Z-Boy Furniture location. The shell of the building is currently underway and two tenants have already signed to fill the space. The tenants that will fill the spaces will each bring their unique food offerings to the Mishawaka region. Potbelly Sandwich Shop & Pie Five Pizza Co. have recently been announced as the new tenants for the space.
Bringing in new restaurants that are not familiar in our region helps increase the diversity of offerings for both local residents and visitors. These two new restaurants add to a growing “Foodie” culture in our region.
Potbelly and Pie Five Pizza Co. will fill two of the four available spots within the building. There are several other businesses currently in talks to fill the remaining two spots. The project is expected to be completed this September. Check out the article in the South Bend Tribune HERE to learn more! Ancon Construction is proud to continue to build our region and is excited to taste these new unique food offerings!

Rod-n-Reel Coffee, Inc., Cabin Coffee Company, and Architect-General Contractor Ancon Construction are excited to announce that work has commenced on a new Cabin Coffee Company franchise location in Goshen. The coffee shop will be located in the former Key Bank building on Lincoln Way East, just south of Goshen High School. The project, overseen by Project Manager Todd Stone and Field Superintendent Matt Krause, is expected to be completed in the Fall of 2016. The coffee shop will feature a Roastin’ House where patrons can watch fresh Arabica gourmet coffee beans being roasted daily. Other programmatic spaces include a large general dining area, conference room, and outdoor patio area.
Other Cabin Coffee Company locations can be found in Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. The Goshen location, so far, is the only coffee shop in Indiana.
“The Ancon team and franchise owners did a remarkable job designing a façade retrofit of the former Key Bank building which was built in the 1970’s,” explained Ancon Designer Matthew VanSoest. “The new exterior façade will feature timber details, new entrance canopies, and brick/stone accents which will allow the building to appear more vernacular,” added VanSoest.

Class A Chicago Cubs’ minor league affiliate, the South Bend Cubs, recently announced they have achieved a Top 10 status in nationwide merchandise sales among all 160 professional minor league teams. South Bend’s close proximity to Chicago and a loyal fan base to the Chicago Cubs were all factors when the Chicago Cubs and the South Bend Cubs became affiliated in 2014. The South Bend Cubs are now one of the “hottest” teams in Minor League Baseball and the national and international sales of merchandise are giving the team unprecedented exposure.
Ancon Construction salutes and commends South Bend Cub team owner Andrew Berlin and President Joe Hart for their compassion and commitment to the team, the fan base, the City of South Bend, and the Michiana region. Ancon is proud to play a small role in the success thus far with building projects such as the Tiki Hut, the Performance Center, and other numerous projects throughout the baseball campus.
Here is what South Bend Cubs President Joe Hart is saying about Ancon Construction: “We’ve worked with Ancon in the past; we knew they could get it done. They’re great communicators and are there every step of the way. I have nothing but great things to say about Ancon. I get a lot better sleep at night knowing that Ancon is on the project. When they said they were going to do something, they did it. Not only have I worked with them on projects from a business standpoint, I have become friends with people over there too. They are people I would go and socialize with outside of a project, which says a lot about their character. I felt like they were part of our staff because the understood how important this project was to us and the community. They wanted to make sure that they did themselves proud, us proud, and ultimately the community proud.”
