HOUSTON, TX — Trammell Crow Company (TCC), a global commercial real estate developer, and joint venture partner Daiwa House Texas have broken ground on Blue Ridge Commerce Center (Blue Ridge), a five-building industrial park located in Houston, Texas. Set on 92 acres in Fort Bend County, the master-planned development will deliver 1,350,627 square feet of Class A industrial space to Houston’s southwest submarket once the project is complete in the summer of 2025.
“Houston’s southwest submarket is one of the fastest growing industrial submarkets in the region and was less than 5 percent vacant as of the second quarter of 2024. With a significant tapering of new supply, we expect the market for Class A industrial space to remain healthy heading into 2025 and beyond,” George Farish of TCC said. “Blue Ridge will feature modern, best-in-class logistics and manufacturing spaces that are highly sought after. Blue Ridge will be an incredibly attractive development for any user that wants to enter or expand their footprint in Houston.”
Located at the northwest corner of the Fort Bend Parkway and McHard Road, 2 miles south of Beltway 8 in Fort Bend County, Blue Ridge will feature five industrial buildings available for sale or lease:
- Building 1: 257,001-square-foot cross-dock facility with a 36-foot clear height
- Building 2: 157,626-square-foot front-load facility with a 32-foot clear height
- Building 3: 153,928-square-foot rear-load facility with a 28-foot clear height
- Building 4: 351,055-square-foot cross-dock facility with a 36-foot clear height
- Building 5: 431,017-square-foot cross-dock facility with a 36-foot clear height
TCC is pursuing LEED certification for all five buildings in the park. In addition, Building 2 will feature roof-mounted solar panels that will support business resilience and reduce operating costs for the building’s occupiers. The park will be served by newly constructed public infrastructure including new public roads, a new traffic signal on McHard Road, new underground utilities, a new regional storm water detention pond, and new public sidewalks.
