RODCO Warehouse in Corpus Christi, TX

Rodco Warehouse is a new construction project located at 425 South Padre Island in Corpus Christi, Texas. The filing describes the construction of two warehouses totaling 37,175 square feet. Manok Investments is the owner of record, and Noma is the design firm listed on the TDLR registration. The estimated cost for the project is $1,600,000, which calculates to $43 per square foot.

The project registered with TDLR in August 2023, and plan review was completed in the same month. Construction was scheduled to begin in October 2023, with a completion date of December 2024. Although that scheduled date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Therefore, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record.

Manok Investments has four other TDLR-registered projects totaling $3,750,000. These include a self-storage facility in Laredo, an industrial center in Mission, another warehouse in Mission, and a building systems project in New Braunfels. All four projects are listed with review complete status. Noma, the design firm, has worked on four other registered projects totaling $5,550,000 across McAllen, Pharr, and Edinburg.

The site is located in the Central City area of Hidalgo County. The surrounding area includes businesses such as FedEx Ship Center, Andrews Distributing, and Cintas Uniform Services. Census estimates for ZIP code 78401 indicate a population of about 4,668 and a median household income of $37,796.

Compared to other new construction filings in Hidalgo County, this project’s cost is above the county median of $660,256. The scheduled build window of 427 days is longer than the county median of 212 days. However, the cost per square foot of $43 is below the county median of $100. The project remains privately funded on private land for private use.
