Watkins Insurance Group broke ground Tuesday on a new two-story office building next to the Grace Heritage Center in downtown Georgetown.
The 9,600-square-foot building, at 815 S. Main St., Georgetown, is under construction on the site of a former parking lot next to the Grace center. The company anticipates its building will open in mid-2019 after 10-12 months of construction.
The new building will be home to offices for the Watkins company, an Austin-based business and personal insurance provider. The first floor will have room for a separate tenant that will be announced at a later date.
