Local project context
Why Houston is different
Houston's industrial core spans the East End, Southwest 90A corridor, and port-adjacent distribution submarkets. Operators here face dense aisle constraints, sprinkler retrofits, and HFD high-piled storage scrutiny.
Common Houston scenarios
- New lease fit-out in older Class B warehouses
- Port-adjacent 3PL expansion with cross-dock layout
- Forklift impact damage from high-throughput operations
- HFD high-piled storage submittal for commodity changes
- Sprinkler in-rack coordination during retrofit
- Used rack purchases from regional liquidations
