Aeon Beyond Bricks and Mortar was a moving success.

We were honored to support an event that brought together people who have been so personally impacted by the work of affordable housing efforts.

A building is more than a structure, it’s shelter, a home, and a place of comfort. It contributes to a larger community that cares for its members. Thank you to Chris Palkowitsch, Julie Lux, Ellie Ziaie, and Gretchen Camp for joining our group for this incredibly special morning, and thank you to Aeon for all the communities and lives you strengthen!

Treasures are in your own backyard!

We had such a great time with Redesign, Inc. this past Wednesday at Wadaag Commons for their Archaeology Open House.

This new mixed-income redevelopment initiative unearthed some fascinating pieces of the past. On the land that now houses the Wadaag Commons, urban archaeologists discovered one of the largest and well-preserved collections of historic artifacts in the Twin Cities.

These pieces inspire thoughtfulness about the people who called this community home, as well as the work we are doing now to strengthen our current communities.

At Watson-Forsberg we strive to do just that: build strong community value with strong values. Thank you Redesign for this poignant reminder of the past!

Today we remember all those who have sacrificed for our country — and the freedoms they have given us. At Watson-Forsberg, we are especially grateful for our family and employees who have served in the armed forces. Your dedication and integrity continue to lead our team and inspire the communities we work to strengthen. Thank you for your service, courage, and commitment.

What a fun and meaningful night at the 180 Degrees, Inc. Stronger Together Gala last Thursday! 🎉

We’re still inspired by the energy in the room and the incredible impact this organization is making to prevent, disrupt, and end homelessness and s*x trafficking. Together, the event raised over $241,000 to support this vital mission.

We were especially honored to celebrate our very own Dale Forsberg, who was recognized with the Champion Award for his dedication as a board member and longtime supporter of 180 Degrees. 👏

Thank you to 180 Degrees for allowing us to be part of such an impactful evening—we’re proud to support your work and the lives you’re changing every day.

Still thinking about the great time we had at the Associated General Contractors of Minnesota (AGC) Open House late last month!

We’re so grateful for 80 years of partnership with AGC and the chance to celebrate alongside such an amazing community. It’s always energizing to connect with others in the industry and strengthen those relationships.

We also want to give a big shoutout to Merry Beckmann as she steps into retirement—thank you for everything you’ve done. Wishing you all the best in this next chapter!

Great people, great conversations, and a great night all around!
