Hensel Phelps, a leading construction contractor, has officially commenced the construction of its new headquarters in Loveland, Colorado. This strategic move is a significant milestone as the company transitions from its long-standing base in Greeley to a modern facility designed to accommodate future growth and innovation.
What Happened
Hensel Phelps marked the start of its new headquarters project with a groundbreaking ceremony on September 30, 2026. The four-story, 143,000-square-foot building will be located in Realberry’s mixed-use development near the intersection of Interstate 25 and U.S. Highway 34. Designed by the architectural firm Gensler, the new headquarters will feature flexible workspaces, training and collaboration environments, and ground-floor retail. A central atrium and mass timber construction will provide sweeping views of the Rocky Mountain Foothills. This development comes in the wake of leadership changes at Hensel Phelps, with the company appointing a new CEO at the start of 2026.
