Watkins Insurance Group, the largest full-service, locally-owned independent insurance agency in central Texas, has begun construction of a new location in historic downtown Georgetown, TX.

The new building, to be located at 815 South Main Street, will be a two-story development which will house Watkins Insurance Group as well as tenants. “Watkins Insurance Group is making a significant investment to downtown Georgetown,” says developer Scott Stribling. “The new building will generate a great amount of momentum for the area and that equates to growth and jobs.”
“We are incredibly excited about increasing our commitment to Georgetown and Williamson county,” says Andy Webb, Partner of Watkins Insurance Group and member of the Georgetown ISD Board of Trustees. “By building a beautiful landmark building on one of the last undeveloped lots in downtown, we hope to be an integral part of the economic future of Georgetown.”

The office is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2019.

We are excited to congratulate central Texas-based Communities for Recovery for being named the Joel Hernandez Award recipient by Faces & Voices of Recovery at the annual America Honors Recovery Awards Dinner & Gala in Washington DC.

The Joel Hernandez Award recognizes one local, state, or regional recovery community organization for its success in assessing the specific needs of their community and carrying out a vision and mission of mobilizing resources within and outside the recovery community to increase the prevalence and quality of long-term recovery from addiction to alcohol and other drugs.

Watkins Insurance Group is honored to have a continued relationship with Communities for Recovery.
