The first dirt was moved as officials from STANLEY Security and Ambrose Property Group, Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness and other project partners celebrated the groundbreaking of STANLEY’s new corporate headquarters in Fishers June 13.

Mayor Fadness first announced the project at his 2016 State of the City address in February, with STANLEY Security investing $15.9 million into a new 80,000-square-foot, three-story North American headquarters.

“This is a very exciting day for our organization,” STANLEY Security North America President Jim Cannon stated. “With the latest technologies integrated into the development of our new headquarters, the building will be the physical embodiment of STANLEY Security’s culture of innovation … We are looking forward to providing revolutionary technology and unmatched customer service to commercial, institutional and industrial businesses with our employees together in one location.”

The STANLEY headquarters will sit in the Fishers Point Business Park corporate corridor along I-69 on Sunlight Drive, just off of the currently-under-construction 106th Street interchange with I-69. That interchange is expected to be completed in the spring of 2017.

Developed and owned by Ambrose Property Group, partnered with Shiel Sexton on building construction, the STANLEY headquarters also is expected to be completed in early 2017.

“I’m honored to be here today to celebrate STANLEY Security and welcome all of their employees to our community,” Fadness stated. “As a leader in their industry and a continuous innovator, STANLEY Security is a perfect fit for Fishers and a committed partner in the city. This project exemplifies the vision of the I-69 corporate corridor and sets a precedent for future development in the area.”
