Project Gallery
This gallery presents Murphy & Sons construction projects from Southaven, MS and the surrounding Mid-South. The company has been building since 1977, and the projects here show the range of buildings and facilities it has taken on. They include public recreation, education and community safety.
Murphy & Sons Construction Projects at a Glance
The project gallery features seven projects:
01Southaven FEMA Shelter- 02Snowden Grove Tennis Courts
- 03Snowden Grove Soccer Complex
- 04Snowden Grove Pedestrian Bridge
- 05NWCC Calhoun Hall
- 06Itawamba Community College Student Services

Each project also has its own page on this site. Together they show a general contractor comfortable with very different building types, from outdoor athletic facilities to campus buildings and school additions.
Snowden Grove
Recreation and Community Projects
Three of the gallery projects carry the Snowden Grove name: the tennis courts, the soccer complex and the pedestrian bridge. Snowden Grove is a well-known park and athletic area in Southaven. Facilities like these have to hold up to heavy public use, season after season.
Sports surfaces, site grading, drainage and pedestrian circulation all call for careful planning. They also depend on good coordination between trades.
The Southaven FEMA Shelter belongs to another category of community project. Shelters built to FEMA criteria are designed with public safety in mind, and these projects require attention to detail at every stage. For a project like this, owners value a contractor who communicates clearly and follows through on supervision and quality control.
Campus & School
Education Projects
The gallery also includes NWCC Calhoun Hall, Itawamba Community College Student Services and the Desoto Central High School Addition. Educational construction has its own demands. Schools and colleges often need to build or expand while the campus stays active. Timelines matter, and so do safe, orderly job sites. The finished buildings must serve students, faculty and staff for many years.
Murphy & Sons has been helping clients throughout the Mid-South since 1977. That long history is why it can approach projects of this type with confidence.

Before You Hire
Why Project Examples Matter
When you are weighing contractors, a track record is one of the most useful things you can review.
Examples of past work show whether a company has experience with buildings like yours. They also show whether it has worked with public owners, schools or community organizations, and whether it takes on a variety of work.
Look at the types of facilities, the owners involved and the communities served. Then talk with the contractor about how it would approach your needs.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What will I find in the Murphy & Sons project gallery?
The gallery lists seven projects: the Southaven FEMA Shelter, three Snowden Grove projects (tennis courts, soccer complex and pedestrian bridge), NWCC Calhoun Hall, Itawamba Community College Student Services and the Desoto Central High School Addition. Each has its own project page on this site.
Why are there three Snowden Grove projects in the gallery?
The tennis courts, soccer complex and pedestrian bridge all share the Snowden Grove name. Snowden Grove is a public park and athletic area in Southaven. Together these projects show experience with recreation facilities and the site work around them.
What types of owners do the gallery projects represent?
The projects include community recreation, public safety and education. Colleges, a high school and a FEMA shelter appear alongside park facilities. That mix reflects a contractor accustomed to working with institutions and organizations that serve the public.
Does the gallery show every project Murphy & Sons has built?
The gallery lists seven projects. Murphy & Sons has been in business since 1977, so if you want to know about experience with a particular building type, ask our office directly. We are happy to talk about whether our background fits your project.
Why are community shelter projects different from other construction?
Shelters built to FEMA criteria are designed to protect people, so they require careful attention to detail, thorough quality control and clear supervision. Owners of this kind of project benefit from a contractor that communicates openly and follows through on its commitments.
What should I look for when reviewing a contractor's project portfolio?
Look at the building types, the kinds of owners served and how long the company has been working. Also consider whether the work resembles your own project. A portfolio is a starting point, so follow it with a conversation about how the contractor would approach your goals, schedule and budget.
Why do schools and colleges need contractors with specific experience?
Educational projects often have fixed timelines tied to the academic calendar. They may also be built next to buildings that are still in use. A contractor who plans carefully, supervises closely and keeps communication open helps the project stay on schedule and keeps the site orderly.
Can I get more information about a project I see in the gallery?
Yes. Call (662) 393-3130 or email info@murphyandsons.com during business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Our team can discuss how our experience relates to the project you are planning.
