Browning

Space so nice, we’re building it twice!
Northfield Drive East is gorgeous (thanks, Curran Architecture), but it is also fully leased and stabilized, so Browning has moved across the street for Phase II: Northfield Drive West.

Northfield Drive West Building 1 is officially under construction in Town of Brownsburg, adding a new 238,200 SF commercial building to a location that offers strong regional access, potential rail service, and flexible space options in one of the west side’s most established commercial corridors. (For companies that love the location but need something more specific, a build-to-suit site is also available to the north.)

For leasing information, visit northfielddriveus136.com or connect with the Cushman & Wakefield team of Michael Weishaar, SIOR, and Jacob Schacki.

Happy and Donut Day from Browning!

For anyone who knows Browning, Grant has made Friday donuts a tradition around here, thanks to his regular Taylor's Bakery runs. He even has a custom Browning donut polo, so yes, the commitment is real...

Ironically, on National Donut Day, Grant was enjoying a well-earned day off, so we called in backup.

The Hometown Mini Donuts truck saved the day, giving the team a chance to step outside, enjoy a treat, and connect with one another over fresh mini donuts. It was a fun way to bring the team together, celebrate a very important office holiday, and honor a tradition that has become part of Browning’s culture.

Thank you to Hometown Mini Donuts for helping us celebrate and Grant, your donut legacy remains firmly intact.

Browning is excited to welcome Broderick Frey “Brody” to the team as an Associate Estimator.

Brody joins Browning’s pre-construction team after studying Mathematical Finance and Physics at Wabash College, bringing a strong analytical foundation to estimating, budgeting, bid solicitation, and project cost analysis.

He began building his construction experience through a Project Manager/Estimator internship with Gradex, and, in his new role, will support Browning’s team through take-offs, subcontractor coordination, bid package preparation, scope reviews, and design-phase budgeting for industrial, multifamily, and commercial real estate projects across the Midwest.

A Carmel, Indiana, native, Brody is launching his career with Browning, ready to learn, contribute, and grow alongside our team as he learns what it means to . Please join us in welcoming Brody.

Last week at the NAIOP Indiana's Annual Awards, our team was honored to be named a finalist for Multifamily/Mixed-Use Transaction of the Year for Vanguard at 16 Tech.

While we did not take home the award, Vanguard continues to represent something meaningful to our team and partners. As the first residential component within the 16 Tech Innovation District, it plays a key role in bringing a true live-work-play environment to life. It reflects strong alignment, disciplined ex*****on, and a shared commitment to delivering lasting value for the Indianapolis community.

Behind the scenes, this was an exceptionally complex deal, requiring coordination across layered financing structures, a ground lease, and public-private components including TIF, but it is a strong example of what can be accomplished through partnership and persistence.

We are incredibly proud of what this team accomplished and appreciate being recognized alongside projects that continue to shape our market.

It was also a great evening spent with our Vanguard partners at Barrett & Stokely. Partnerships like this are a big part of what makes this work so rewarding.

Congratulations to all of this year’s winners and finalists. It is an exciting time to be part of the continued growth and momentum across our region.

If you missed FrontRange Capital Partners, LLC's announcement on Friday, we are proud to share our new programmatic joint venture.

Today, on Administrative Professionals Day, we are proud to recognize three team members whose impact is felt across Browning every single day.

Tammy Chumbley, Kristy Myers, and Shannon Rogers are the steady hands behind the scenes, keeping details aligned, priorities moving, and teams supported. Their ability to anticipate needs, stay organized in a fast-moving environment, and help others succeed reflects the very best of who we are.

They are the epitome of what it means to be Browning: excellent in ex*****on, empowered to solve problems, respectful in every interaction, admirable in character, and committed to safety in all they do.

Please join us in thanking Tammy, Kristy, and Shannon for all they do to support our people, our projects, and our mission.

This Saturday, Browning is proud to support the Greater Indy Habitat for Humanity Women’s Build, and we need your help to make an impact. As Browning’s annual charitable partner, Habitat for Humanity represents the kind of long-term, community-focused investment we believe in. Throughout the year, that partnership takes many forms, from company volunteer days to event sponsorships, including last year’s CEO Build.

This year, our focus is the Women’s Build and the Moxie & Mortar team, led by Browning team members Chelsea Leiter Thompson and Erin Drake, CPSM. This year, Browning will match funds raised by the build's Moxie & Mortar team, doubling the impact of every dollar contributed. The team extends beyond Browning, representing strong partnerships across the AEC and CRE industries that make this impact possible, and their donations will be matched too!

If you are able, consider supporting one of these women or the team as a whole: https://give.indyhabitat.org/team/809174

At Browning, we talk a lot about what it means to and Building Communities... and this is what that looks like in action. It is a partnership. It is being empowered to give back. It is choosing to be admirable in the way we show up for others.

It is also worth noting what makes this model so impactful. Homes are not simply given away. Future homeowners invest their own time working alongside volunteers, and purchase their homes with affordable mortgages. It is a true partnership that creates long-term stability and pride of ownership.

If you are looking for a tangible way to support affordable housing and invest in our community, this is it. Every contribution moves this effort forward, and every gift goes further with the match in place.

Looking for a little Monday momentum? Spend time with the next generation of real estate professionals.
Last Friday, students from the Purdue University Daniels School of Business and the Dean V. White Real Estate Finance Program were in Indianapolis for a full day of industry exposure, connecting with firms, exploring active developments, and learning firsthand how projects come together.
We had the opportunity to host the group at 16 Tech Innovation District, where we showcased our developments, including Vanguard, the first residential component of the innovation district, delivered in partnership with Barrett & Stokely.
Their curiosity, thoughtful questions, and perspective on where our industry is headed made it clear the future of real estate is in capable hands.
We are proud to be part of a broader industry effort to open doors, share insight, and support the continued growth of talent shaping our communities.
