A class-A logistics park is set to be built in Texas, US. Known as, Park 290, the 68-acre development will be located in Austin, Texas. This was reported way back in 2020 by developers Brookefield Properties.
Located in Austin’s Northeast submarket, the Class-A logistics park was to occupy 826,000 square feet. The two-phase development was to include four LEED certified distribution buildings featuring 28-36’ clear heights, flexible divisibility, and ample car and trailer parking to accommodate tenants from 30,000 to 315,000 square feet.

According to Connor Tamlyn, Brookfield Properties Vice President in charge of development, the vibrant economy and rapidly growing population provide an attractive opportunity to serve a diverse and growing tenant base. “We are thrilled to continue the growth of our development platform in the dynamic Austin market,” he added.
