Texarkana Aluminum Building #2

Texarkana Aluminum Building #2 is a new 158,304 sq ft pre-engineered metal structure located at 201 Bob Bunch Parkway in Nash, Texas. The facility was designed specifically for aluminum coil storage, creating a large-scale industrial asset in Bowie County. With an estimated cost of $15,000,000, the project represents a significant investment in the local infrastructure, equating to a construction cost of $95 per square foot.

The construction process began in March 2022, following the project's registration with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation in May 2022. The filing indicated a scheduled completion date of December 2022. TDLR closed the project file in December 2022, which marks the end of the accessibility review process for this construction. This status confirms that the regulatory review phase has concluded for this specific build.

Project Details and Design

Peter Velotas is listed as the owner and developer of record for this facility. ADB Design Services served as the design firm, a company that has been involved in other major industrial projects across Texas, including facilities in Fort Worth and Houston. The registered accessibility specialist for this project was Ernest G Taylor.

In the context of Bowie County, this project stands out for its scale. Among 260 TDLR-registered new construction filings in the county, the median estimated cost is $977,500. The $15,000,000 estimate for Texarkana Aluminum Building #2 places it in the top quarter of costs for similar projects in the area. While the median size for new construction in the county is 6,496 sq ft, this building is significantly larger, reflecting its specialized purpose for heavy storage.

Local Economic Context

Nash is a small community in Bowie County with a population of approximately 3,601 according to U.S. Census estimates for ZIP code 75569. The median household income in this area is $38,750, and the median owner-occupied home value is $148,400. The housing market in the ZIP code is an even mix of owner- and renter-occupied units. The construction of a large industrial facility like this one often brings economic activity to smaller towns, though the specific operational impact is not detailed in the TDLR filing.

Bowie County's labor market has seen fluctuations, with an unemployment rate of 4.8 percent reported in July 2026, which is higher than the rate a year earlier. The presence of large-scale industrial projects can contribute to local employment, but the TDLR record focuses on the construction and accessibility compliance rather than long-term economic outcomes.
