Trane (Ft Worth) Selective Rack Add-on

The Trane facility at 2833 Basswood Blvd in Fort Worth completed a renovation focused on installing prefabricated selective racking. This project, registered with TDLR in November 2024, involved a 147,000 sq ft space in Tarrant County. The estimated cost for this specific renovation was $220,000. EastGroup Properties, LP, is the owner of record. The work is classified as a Renovation/Alteration rather than new construction.

Construction began in December 2024, following a plan review completed in the same month. The filing indicated a scheduled completion date of January 2025. However, the final inspection was not passed until April 2026. This timeline reflects the actual duration of the accessibility review and construction verification process.

Construction Details and Cost

The scope of work was strictly limited to the installation of prefabricated selective racking. This specialized storage solution is common in industrial and distribution centers to optimize vertical space. The computed cost per square foot for this renovation was $1. In comparison to other Tarrant County renovation filings, this cost is close to the county median of $250,000. The scheduled build window of 28 days was shorter than the county median of 92 days. The low per-square-foot cost reflects the specific nature of the work, which did not involve structural changes or full tenant fit-out.

EastGroup Properties, LP, has multiple other projects registered with TDLR, totaling over $25 million. These include facilities in Houston, Katy, Buda, and Pflugerville. The Trane project in Fort Worth is part of this broader portfolio of industrial and office spaces. The site is located in a commercial area with nearby businesses such as Service Experts Fort Worth and CubeSmart Self Storage. The local ZIP code 76131 has a median household income of $104,301 according to Census estimates.

Project Status and Completion

The TDLR status for this project is now Project Closed. TDLR closed the project file in August 2026, which marks the end of the accessibility review process for this construction. This closure confirms that the required inspections were passed and the regulatory requirements were met. The final inspection passed in April 2026, nearly four months before the file was officially closed. This period allows for administrative processing and final documentation. The project is no longer active in the TDLR system.

City of Fort Worth permit records show two permits issued at this address between January and February 2025. These included one Electrical permit and one Commercial Building Permit. The declared valuations on these permits totaled $42,200. The most recent permit description mentioned the installation of pre-engineered prefabricated steel storage cantilever. This aligns with the TDLR scope of work for the racking installation. The permits reached a final status, indicating that the city-level construction process was also completed.
