Transwestern to start on 834K-sf distribution center

​​​​HOUSTON – Transwestern Development Co. plans to break ground on the Sam Houston Distribution Center, an 833,720-sf industrial project off Fairbanks N. Houston Rd. between Fallbrook Dr. and Taub Rd.

The 60-acre site will have three buildings and additional land for added trailer storage or a build-to-suit opportunity. 

The buildings in the first phase consists of:

• ​a 200,200-sf front-load building with a 32-ft clear height; 

• a 494,800-sf, cross-dock facility with a 36-ft clear height; and 

• a 138,720-sf, front-load facility with a 32-ft clear height.

Completion is planned for 2020, positioning the park to benefit from the $1.8 billion expansion of US 290 that is expected to be completed in late 2019.

Transwestern acquired the land and will develop the project with institutional investors advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management.
