Celebrating Community Health Network’s New Westfield Primary Care

Powers & Sons Celebrates Opening of Community Health Network’s New Westfield Primary Care Office 

Powers & Sons Construction is proud to celebrate the opening of Community Health Network’s new family medicine and pediatric care office in Westfield, Indiana. The new outpatient clinic expands access to convenient, high-quality healthcare for families in one of Central Indiana’s growing communities. 

Located at 1567 W. Tournament Trail, the new practice offers family medicine and pediatric care, same-day appointments, extended hours and providers accepting new patients. 

Powers & Sons served as the general contractor for the interior buildout, transforming the space into a modern outpatient clinic designed to support both patients and healthcare providers. 

Building a Space for Patient Care 

The project included the construction of 35 examination rooms, along with a centralized nurse’s station and dedicated testing area. Powers & Sons also coordinated the installation of new flooring, finishes and casework throughout the clinic. 

Behind the scenes, the project required extensive building-system improvements to support the new healthcare environment. Work included utility tie-ins, variable air volume (VAV) systems and the installation of a new rooftop air handling unit. 

With Community Health Network preparing to welcome patients, the project was completed on an accelerated schedule, requiring close coordination among the project team, trade partners and client to keep work moving efficiently and deliver the space on time. 

Expanding Access to Care in Westfield 

The completion of the new clinic represents more than the opening of another healthcare facility. It provides Westfield-area families with greater access to primary and pediatric care close to home. 

Powers & Sons was pleased to join Community Health Network, the Westfield Chamber of Commerce and community members at the ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening and the team effort that brought the new space to life. 

We are grateful to Community Health Network for the opportunity to contribute to another facility dedicated to serving patients and strengthening communities. 

As Westfield continues to grow, Powers & Sons is proud to help build the spaces and infrastructure that support the people who call it home. 

 

Garfield Park after Volunteer Efforts.

Powers & Sons Indianapolis Team Gives Back to Garfield Park

Going Beyond the Scope

After recently finishing renovations and site improvements at historic Garfield Park, the project team noticed a space that still needed attention. The shaded seating area between the new playground, historic pagoda, and pavilion had become overgrown. Refreshing the space wasn’t included in Powers & Sons’ scope of work on the project, or in the Parks and Recreation Department’s budget, but Project Executive Nate Secrest and Project Manager Casey Parsons knew they couldn't leave it that way. 

Wanting the area to look its very best for the opening, Nate and Casey rallied the Powers & Sons Indianapolis team to volunteer their time and give the space the finishing touch it deserved.  

Powers & Sons Volunteer Team from Day 1.Going the Extra Mile

Over the course of two Friday’s, team members from the Indianapolis office came together at Garfield Park. Powers & Sons volunteers cleared overgrown planting beds, hauled away excess dirt, leveled the landscape, spread mulch, trimmed shrubs, and swept surrounding sidewalks. What had once been an overlooked space was transformed into a clean, welcoming area that now matches the quality and appearance of the newly renovated park. 

For the Powers & Sons team, the volunteer effort was more than landscaping—it was about seeing a need, providing a solution, and leaving Garfield Park even better than they found it. 

Restoring a Community Landmark

Powers & Sons recently served as the general contractor for park renovations, including a new playground with custom equipment inspired by Garfield Park's historic pagoda, fitness equipment, new and refreshed shelters, accessible pathways, landscaping improvements, upgraded stormwater infrastructure, and parking lot enhancements. 

Seeing the project through meant more than completing the contracted work. For the Indianapolis team, it meant taking ownership of the finished product and investing a little extra time to ensure the area adjacent to our work reflected the care and craftsmanship that went into the renovation. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Building Stronger Communities

Powers & Sons Volunteer Team from Day 2

At Powers & Sons, building communities extend beyond the projects we construct. It means giving back, taking pride in our work, and investing in the places where people gather. 

The Garfield Park cleanup is a great example of that commitment. Through the dedication of Nate, Casey, and the Indianapolis team, a volunteer effort became the final touch on a project that will serve the community for years to come.

Powers & Sons’ New Indianapolis Home

A New Home on Historic Ground 

We’re thrilled to share that Powers & Sons Construction has moved! Our Indianapolis office is now located downtown on Indiana Avenue. 

A place of significance in the city, known for its rich cultural heritage and role in shaping the community, Indiana Avenue reflects both history and progress—something that closely aligns with our own story.

Where It All Started 

Our Indianapolis office opened in 1992 with a simple goal: support work with Indianapolis Public Schools and build relationships within the community.

What started with a small team working side by side around a few folding tables quickly became something much larger. Through hard work, trusted partnerships, and a commitment to delivering quality projects, Powers & Sons Construction steadily expanded its presence throughout Central Indiana.

As opportunities grew, so did our team. One office suite became two, and two became three. New projects led to new relationships. Each milestone helped strengthen our foundation and position us for the future.

A Foundation built Over Time 

For more than three decades, our office at 2502 Roosevelt Avenue served as the center of our Indianapolis operations. It was where teams collaborated, challenges were solved, and projects that helped shape communities across the region took root.

For longtime team members who have been part of the Indianapolis journey since the beginning, the office represents decades of growth, achievement, and shared success.

Today, Powers & Sons Construction employs more than 60 people at our Indianapolis office, and we continue to grow year over year. As our staff, relationships, and project portfolio expanded, it became clear that we needed a new office to accommodate our team now and support our continued growth over time.

Built on the Past, Focused on the Future 

Our Roosevelt Avenue office will always be an important part of the Powers & Sons Construction story. It’s where our Indianapolis presence was established and took root.

This move represents progress - growth - opportunity and the continued evolution of our company. It's more than a new address; it's an all-new chapter. As we begin it, we do so with gratitude for all who helped build the foundation that brought us here. We’re excited to continue growing our team, strengthening our impact, and building projects that matter throughout Indianapolis and beyond. 

We’re proud of where we started.

We're thrilled to call 355 Indiana Avenue our new home.

And we’re excited about what lies ahead as we continue to write Powers & Sons Construction's story.

Celebrating Women in Construction

As part of Women in Construction Week, the women from our North offices came together for a special luncheon at the Chicago Yacht Club.

The event created an opportunity for women across our teams and departments to connect, share experiences, discuss the evolving construction industry, and celebrate one another’s accomplishments. From conversations surrounding career growth and leadership to the importance of representation and support within the industry, the luncheon reflected the strong community and culture that continues to grow within Powers & Sons Construction.

We are grateful for the women who continue to shape our projects, strengthen our teams, and inspire the future generation of builders and leaders in construction.

Ribbon Cutting Celebrates Lakeview Landing

Lakeview Landing was designed with intention from the ground up.

Progress at Tolleston Opportunity Campus

A Community-Driven Project Rooted in Gary, Indiana.

At Powers & Sons Construction, we believe the most meaningful projects are the ones that strengthen communities—and the Tolleston Opportunity Campus is a powerful example of that mission in action.

Located in Gary, IN, directly across from our Gary office and in the neighborhood Powers & Sons has proudly called home since 1967, this project carries special significance for our team. It’s not just a jobsite—it’s a chance to invest in the very community that has supported our company for generations.

Tolleston Opportunity Campus Construction

From Vision to Reality: A Campus Taking Shape

This joint venture with Berglund is quickly taking shape and already reflects the vision behind it: a space designed to foster wellness, recreation, connection, and opportunity for generations to come. Developed in partnership with Crossroads YMCA, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Northwest Indiana, and Methodist Hospitals, the campus is emerging as a transformative community hub. As construction progresses, it’s exciting to see the campus transform from plans on paper into a place that will serve as a true community anchor. 

The new facility will feature a multi-purpose gymnasium to support sports, recreation, and community events, along with classrooms and meeting spaces dedicated to educational workshops, job training, and youth programming. A dedicated wellness center will offer fitness equipment and group exercise classes, while a child development center will provide high-quality early childhood education and after-school care for local families. The campus will also include a teaching kitchen, creating opportunities for nutrition education and healthy cooking classes that support overall well-being. 

Beyond the building itself, the exterior scope of work further extends the campus’s impact. Outdoor recreational spaces will include playgrounds and sports fields, along with thoughtfully designed community gathering areas that encourage connection, engagement, and shared experiences.

Designed for Lasting Community Impact

As construction advances, the vision behind the campus is becoming tangible. Each phase reflects the dedication of the many organizations, partners, and supporters who believe in the power of community-driven development. We are honored to play a role in bringing this impactful project to life and to work alongside teams who share a common goal: creating lasting, positive change. 

At Powers & Sons Construction, projects like the Tolleston Opportunity Campus underscore why we do what we do—building spaces that go beyond bricks and mortar to support people, possibility, and progress. 

Progress you can see. Impact that will last.
