2010 – The splash pad project included concrete and equipment at Rieth Park in Goshen, Indiana.
We remodeled the South Bend Cubs Tiki Hut in 2016.
“1st class operation and always looking out for us.”
Ancon built the observation tower at Oxbow Park in 2015, which offers panoramic views of prairie, wetlands, and the river. A kiosk provides visitors information and historical photographs of the park and displays information on the surrounding vegetation and wildlife species. The first level of the tower is 20 feet above ground level and is ADA accessible.
Check out Ox Bow tower, a fun experience to see our community in a way you have never seen before.
“Ancon Construction stepped forward when we lost an icon at Ox Bow County Park. They were integral partner in the design and construction of the new Ox Bow Park Tower and insured the new design incorporated an ADA compliant level to meet the needs of all park users. The Tower once again is a place for visitors to get birds eye view of the park.”
In 2014, Ancon Construction and JPR were given the opportunity to provide professional and construction services for the South Bend Cubs Performance Center. This was an exciting project to work on with a challenging schedule. Starting at the end of the baseball season, this project needed to be complete by April 1 – before the beginning of the next season – so the South Bend Cubs could be ready for opening day on April 9.
The project was fast tracked which required a foundation release from the State of Indiana prior to having a full set of construction documents. Throughout the project there were minor changes to the program along with several changes to the shell of the building. This affected both the structural design and detailing; however, the client was very helpful with decisions that needed to be made by always keeping in mind the April 1 deadline.
The South Bend Cubs Performance Center was constructed utilizing a pre-engineered building structure with a brick and metal panel facade. It houses 6 batting cages, along with a weight room, office, and concessions. Additionally, it has a great view of the stadium from the mezzanine level and a walkout patio on the west side of the facility.
“Ancon and crew were great to work with. As always, Ancon came through despite the short time frame.”
In 2007 Ancon built the NIBCO Water and Ice Park. As part of the Elkhart downtown revitalization effort, the NIBCO Ice Park is the first of its kind in the United States. This ice park goes beyond a traditional ice skate rink, containing a 13-foot-wide path that travels approximately 410 feet around and connects to a 90-foot round skating area. On the grounds is a warming hut with lockers, a skate rental area, and a concession stand. During the summer, the circular portion is a splash pad, and the path can be used for inline skating.
