Jacksonville, TX Dollar Tree

J3 Group, LLC completed a new ground-up commercial construction project for a Dollar Tree store at 2100 East Rusk Street in Jacksonville, Texas. The 9,938 sq ft facility was privately funded on private land for private use. The project was registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in May 2023, with construction starting in July 2023 and a scheduled completion date of November 2023.

The estimated cost for this build was $500,000, translating to $50 per square foot. This figure is below the county median of $162 per square foot for similar new construction filings in Cherokee County. The scheduled build window of 122 days was also shorter than the county median of 188 days.
