Stronghold Expansion in Pasadena, TX

Bayport Park III - Building 2 at 10344 New Decade Drive in Pasadena underwent a significant renovation and alteration project. The work involved remodeling an existing lease space, converting portions of the warehouse area into office space, and adding a new restroom. The project covered 34,250 square feet of space and was estimated to cost $400,000.

The owner of record is Carson Bayport III LLC, with Seeberger Architecture serving as the design firm. Jeromy G Murphy was the registered accessibility specialist for the project. The work was privately funded on private land for private use. The project was registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in November 2024, with construction scheduled to begin in January 2025 and complete by March 2025.

Project Scope and Status

The renovation focused on interior changes to improve functionality for office use within the industrial building. The scope included structural and cosmetic updates to transition warehouse zones into professional office environments. The addition of a new restroom further enhanced the facility's amenities. The estimated cost of $400,000 places this project above the median estimated cost of $250,000 for similar renovation and alteration filings in Harris County.

The scheduled build window was 84 days, which is close to the county median of 92 days for comparable projects. The cost per square foot was $12, which is below the county median of $80 per square foot. This indicates a lower cost intensity relative to the size of the work performed. The project's status is finalized, as TDLR closed the project file in March 2025, marking the end of the accessibility review process.

Seeberger Architecture has been involved in six other TDLR-registered projects in the region, totaling over $53 million in value. These include large-scale industrial buildings in Katy and Brookshire, as well as projects in Houston. The presence of other registered projects in the immediate area, such as Bayport Fairmont and Storage Vault Self Storage, suggests a hub of commercial development in the Pasadena corridor.

The site is located within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, specifically zone AE. This designation is relevant for long-term property management and insurance considerations. The project's completion in March 2025 aligns with the scheduled timeline, and the closure of the TDLR file confirms that the accessibility review requirements were met. The renovation represents a targeted update to existing infrastructure rather than new construction, focusing on converting industrial space for office use.
