📰About TFC DM 20-21 Hazardous Chemical Stor. Bldg
The Texas Facilities Commission completed a new 2,084-square-foot Hazardous Chemical Storage Building at 1100 W. 49th Street in Austin. This structure serves the DHHS Dr. Bob Glaze Laboratory, replacing an existing chemical storage facility within the Rosedale neighborhood. The project was registered with TDLR in January 2025, marking the final step in its regulatory review.
Construction began in August 2022 and concluded in August 2023. The filing indicates a scheduled build window of 365 days, which is close to the county median of 304 days for similar new construction filings in Travis County. The estimated cost for this specific build was $1,500,000.
Project Scope and Cost
The scope of work involved the new construction of a dedicated storage facility for hazardous chemicals. This specialized infrastructure supports the laboratory operations at the site. The estimated cost of $1,500,000 places the project above the median estimated cost of $1,000,000 for new construction filings in Travis County. The median size for such projects is 12,000 square feet, making this storage building significantly smaller than the typical new construction filing in the area.
The cost per square foot for this project is $720. This figure is above the county median of $125 per square foot for new construction. The higher per-square-foot cost reflects the specialized nature of hazardous material storage, which requires specific safety and containment standards that differ from standard office or commercial construction.
The Texas Facilities Commission is the owner of record for this project. The commission manages several other state facilities in Austin, including the Supreme Court Building and the George H. W. Bush Building. The registered accessibility specialist for this filing was A Leslie Marrero. The project involved public funds and public land, consistent with state infrastructure development.
TDLR closed the project file in January 2025. This action marks the end of the accessibility review process for this construction. The project status is now listed as Project Closed. No further construction activity is indicated in the current record, and the regulatory review phase has been fully completed.
