Dallas developer starting business parks in Arlington and Fort Worth

A developer is kicking off two Tarrant County industrial projects – one in Arlington and another in Fort Worth.

Dallas-based Jackson-Shaw has already started construction on Parc 20, a two-building, 154,127-square-foot business park in Arlington. The project is being built on a vacant tract on South Collins Street.

And in Fort Worth, Jackson-Shaw is building 46 Ranch Logistics Park, a three-building industrial project with more than 560,000 square feet. Eventually, the business park on Altamesa Boulevard in South Fort Worth is planned for more than 2 million square feet of construction.

The Tarrant County projects – along with one in San Antonio – are being built by Jackson-Shaw in partnership with Dallas investor Thackeray Partners.

“We are appreciative that Thackeray Partners is working with us on multiple projects throughout Texas,” Jackson-Shaw president and chief operating officer Michele Wheeler said in a statement. “This collaborative relationship, especially during these unprecedented times, allows us to develop and deliver quality state-of-the-art industrial developments in Houston, North Texas and San Antonio.”

Ridgemont Commercial Construction is general contractor for the Tarrant County projects, which were designed by GSR-Andrade. Veritex Community Bank is providing financing. Stream Realty is leasing the business parks.

Jackson-Shaw is a 49-year-old real estate development company with projects in Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, Denver, Las Vegas, Scottsdale, Ariz., Phoenix, Jacksonville, Fla., and Washington, D.C.
