Austin’s ATX 130 Business Park Welcomes Major Tenants Amid Industrial Growth

Austin Sees New Developments at ATX 130 Business Park

Austin, Texas, is witnessing significant growth in its industrial real estate sector, particularly at the ATX 130 Business Park, located just 1.5 miles from the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The park, which features four buildings across 67 acres, offers a total of 602,470 square feet of industrial space, and recent announcements reveal that two major tenants are set to occupy nearly 330,000 square feet.

New Tenants Fill the Space

Virginia-based Ferguson LLC, described as the largest distributor of plumbing supplies and related products in the U.S., will be moving into a spacious building of 207,280 square feet by the end of this month. Alongside Ferguson, Hotline Delivery, a third-party logistics company, has also signed a lease for a 120,440-square-foot building in the park, with plans to take occupancy this month as well.

Park’s Appeal and Remaining Space

According to Miles Terry, Vice President of Development at Dallas-based Jackson-Shaw Co., the addition of these tenants highlights the park’s appeal for various industries. “The commitment of these industry leaders demonstrates their confidence in ATX 130, underscoring the park’s appeal to diverse organizations and highlighting the strategic importance of its location,” said Terry in a recent statement.

Despite the leasing success, there remains a healthy amount of space available for new tenants. Terry noted that approximately 274,750 square feet is still up for grabs, catering to businesses looking for quality space in a prime area.

Strategic Location

The location of ATX 130 is key to its allure. Not only is it a short distance from the airport, but it is also close to Tesla Inc.’s gigafactory, making it an attractive place for industrial operations. Potential uses for the remaining buildings include third-party logistics, research and development, e-commerce distribution, and consumer goods warehousing.

Further Developments in Southeast Austin

Southeast Austin, where ATX 130 is situated, has been buzzing with development activity. There are several other major projects underway, including a new mixed-use development called Velocity by Presidium Group, which is rising east of the airport. Affordable housing developments are also on the rise, plus a number of industrial projects are in the works.

For example, Houston-based Patrinely Group LLC and Realterm are collaborating on a 439,000-square-foot project off McAngus Road. Additionally, Brookfield Properties is working on a 53-acre industrial park situated north of McKinney Falls State Park, while Stream Realty Partners is developing a 413,338-square-foot industrial project north of the airport. Not to be overlooked, Stoneridge Capital Partners is also moving forward with a substantial 453,658-square-foot project named Colorado Bend to the east.

Conclusion

The leasing activity at ATX 130 Business Park and the ongoing developments in the surrounding areas reflect Austin’s robust growth and the increasing demand for industrial space. As new companies set up operations in this rapidly growing market, it is evident that Austin is positioning itself as an important hub for diverse industrial activities.
