FUJIFILM DIOSYNTH BIOTECHNOLOGIES - NEXUS WAREHOUSE

Fujifilm Diosynth Biotechnologies completed a new 91,254 square foot facility in College Station, Texas, in August 2021. The project, registered with TDLR, involved the construction of a storage warehouse, pharmaceutical materials testing lab, and materials distribution center on the company's existing campus. The facility is located at 3945 Biomedical Way in Brazos County.

The estimated cost for this new construction was $16,000,000. This figure places the project in the top quarter of estimated costs for similar new construction filings in Brazos County, where the median estimated cost is $700,000. The cost per square foot was calculated at $175, which is above the county median of $116 per square foot for comparable projects.

Energy Architecture served as the design firm of record. The company has registered six other projects with TDLR, totaling $4,120,000 in estimated costs across locations in Houston, Odessa, and Huntsville. Bartlett Cocke, a general contractor, is listed in third-party industry profiles as the builder for this specific Nexus Warehouse project, describing it as a 91,000 square foot industrial facility.

The construction schedule ran from December 2020 to August 2021. This 273-day build window is longer than the county median scheduled build window of 212 days for new construction projects. The project was privately funded on private land for private use, with no public funding sources indicated in the filing.

TDLR closed the project file in August 2021, marking the end of the accessibility review process. The registered accessibility specialist for the project was William T Winning. The facility is part of Fujifilm Diosynth Biotechnologies' operations in College Station, a ZIP code 77845 area with a population of about 74,612 and a median household income of $90,434 according to U.S. Census estimates.
