Is the expansion of large industrial parks in your area making your community a better place?
Hamilton Development has officially commenced construction on a $57.7 million, 1 million-square-foot industrial facility in Fort Worth. The project is fully leased and represents the first phase of industrial development within the larger Walsh community.
Why it matters
As the inaugural Texas project for Hamilton Development, the facility signals a significant expansion of logistics infrastructure near Interstate 20. The pre-leased nature of the warehouse reflects continued demand for large-scale industrial space in the Fort Worth market.
The new 1 million-square-foot warehouse sits on a 60-acre site, serving as the first industrial building within the 2,500-acre designated office and industrial section of the 7,500-acre Walsh community. Total planned industrial capacity for the development reaches 20 million square feet.
The players
Hamilton Development
A real estate developer executing its first industrial project in Texas.
Walsh
A 7,500-acre master-planned community hosting significant new industrial and office space.
The details
The facility features 6,000 square feet of office space alongside its primary warehouse footprint. Located at the intersection of Bentley Bridge Drive and Interstate 20, the site is positioned to capture regional logistics traffic. This structure marks the start of a multi-phase build-out, with this being the first of two planned buildings in this specific sector of the Walsh development.
Timeline
Construction on the project began on October 15, 2026.
Project completion is expected in the third quarter of 2027.
Market Landscape
This project serves as the foundational development for the broader 20 million square foot industrial expansion program planned for the area. It underscores a strategic move to establish a new major industrial hub within the region's existing master-planned footprint.
Operators in the Fort Worth logistics and supply chain sector should monitor the project's completion timeline in Q3 2027 as a benchmark for local industrial capacity. The early full-leasing of this site highlights strong institutional demand for large-footprint facilities with interstate access.
The takeaway
The rapid absorption of this 1 million-square-foot facility before construction concludes signals high demand for modern, interstate-proximate industrial space. Developers and site selectors should track the upcoming second building release in Walsh to gauge if demand remains at this scale.
