Industrial Mega-Development Can Accommodate Multiple Users
Ella West Crossing will total 221,393 square feet with cross-dock or front-load lease configuration options that can accommodate users with space requirements ranging from 40,000 to 221,393 square feet.
HOUSTON—Ella West Crossing is underway in Pinto Business Park, a class-A master-planned industrial park in North Houston, according to Seefried Industrial Properties, development partner for USAA Real Estate. The park is scheduled for completion in July 2020.
Ella West Crossing will total 221,393 square feet with cross-dock or front-load lease configuration options that can accommodate multiple industrial users. Tenant spaces will range from 40,000 to 221,393 square feet.
The park is located at the northeast corner of Ella Boulevard and West Road, and just 20 minutes from Bush Intercontinental Airport. Its close proximity and direct access to both Interstate 45 and Beltway 8 make it a desirable location for industrial distribution.
“We so appreciate the cooperation of the Pinto Business Park ownership to proceed forward on this site. Seefried has successfully developed millions of square feet of space with USAA over the last 10 years, and we look forward to Ella West Crossing being the next successful venture in that relationship,” said Jonathan Stites, senior vice president of Seefried Industrial Properties.
Ella West Crossing will feature a 32-foot clear height, 185-foot truck courts and a total of 50 dock doors, three drive-in doors, 234 vehicle parking spaces, 67 trailer spaces and an ESFR sprinkler system.
“Unique features include exceptional access to two major freeways, a high number of trailer parking spaces for such a small building, tenant space configuration flexibility including various-sized front-load requirements and/or cross-dock configurations, above-market roof design specifications and LED lighting throughout the project,” Stites tells GlobeSt.com.
Rosenberger Construction is the general contractor, Powers Brown Architecture is the architect and Brown and Gay Engineers Inc. is the civil engineer. The Avison Young team of Todd Mason and Jeff Lindenberger will lead the leasing/marketing effort for the new project.
Of the 18.3 million square feet currently under construction, about three-fourths of that space is available for lease. The vacancy rate for class-A properties is at 12.1%, up from 7.6% this time last year, according to the latest report from NAI Partners.
