The City of Waterville celebrated an exciting project milestone for the new Fire Station with a beam signing ceremony 🏗️ Members of the fire department signed the final structural member of their new facility, leaving their mark for years to come!

These ospreys nested right on the stadium lights, becoming the star of the show 🌟 While they didn’t disrupt any of the construction progress at Apple Valley High School, football games were rescheduled to be able to play without the usual Friday night lights 🏟️ Independent School District 196

Knutson transformed an existing space into the new Pediatric Cardiovascular ICU as part of a larger effort to consolidate all pediatric ICUs onto the third floor of the Mary Brigh building in Rochester. This renovation enhances care for some of the hospital’s youngest patients by creating a state-of-the-art, specialized environment tailored to their critical needs. Here's to building healthy, happy communities 🎉

All Seasons Arena is back in business after renovating this space to better support Greater Mankato, the hockey, and the figure skating community 🎉 After celebrating the grand opening on Friday, Team Blue had the opportunity to join residents on Saturday for an open skate and were honored with the first puck drop on the new rink! Knutson superintendent, Jeff Williams, learned to skate, coaches, and watches his sons play at this facility, making this project close to home in more ways than one. Thank you to everyone who made this possible, especially the City of Mankato, City of North Mankato, Blue Earth County, ISG, and B32 for their instrumental role in bringing this space to life, serving the Greater Mankato community for many years to come!

Creating impactful spaces for our communities is what we do, but it wouldn’t be possible without the dedication, long hours, and hard work from our teams. We are beyond grateful to the men and women who have been a part of our 114-year journey — thank you to all of the Team Blue construction superstars 🌟
