Upholstered furniture manufacturer Flexsteel (NASDAQ: FLXS) broke ground Thursday on a new corporate headquarters in Dubuque, Iowa.

In April, Flexsteel announced plans to construct a $12 Million, 40,000-square-foot, four-story, office building at the corner of Fifth and Bell streets in the Port of Dubuque.

"Our corporate offices have been at the north Jackson Street location since 1936," said Ronald J. Klosterman, Flexsteel's President and CEO. "After 75 years, the office facility is out-of-date both structurally and technologically. Our business has changed during our 118 year history and will continue to evolve. We appreciate the dedication shown by our associates and we are excited about the opportunity to provide them with a greatly-improved working environment, both aesthetically and functionally."
