The rear-load speculative industrial facility is adjacent to the Tri-County Industrial Park and accessible from Interstate 35. The spec project can accommodate a single user or multiple tenants and encompasses 9.5 acres. It features 30-foot clear heights, 32 dock doors, and a 147-foot truck court.
“As we evaluated opportunities to re-enter the industrial sector, we carefully considered various options, and Phelan-Bennett was the ideal partner for the Schertz project,” said Rick Perdue, President of Rosewood Property Company. “This facility is a perfect fit for us as we look to expand our industrial portfolio.”
Construction of Four Oaks Distribution Center is expected to last nine months with a tentative completion date in the fourth quarter of 2021.
“Shifting consumer preferences will make Four Oaks Distribution Center a much-desired project, appealing to a wide variety of tenants,” said Brandon Cooke, Vice President of Acquisitions for Rosewood Property Company. “Its proximity to San Antonio and Austin enables distribution centers to reach over two million customers within the hour. The development’s location, coupled with a skilled manufacturing workforce, makes this facility an ideal base of operations for any distributor.”
Calvin J. Coatsworth Architects is designing the facility, and R.C. Page Construction is serving as general contractor on the project. Trent Agnew and Charlie Strauss with JLL arranged the deal, and Veritex Community Bank is the construction lender. The facility will be leased by Roger Hill and Kyle Mueller with JLL.
