📰About Sterling Kia Car Wash
Sterling Kia filed a TDLR registration in February 2025 to renovate its facility at 197 N. Earl Rudder Freeway in Bryan. The project, recorded as the Sterling Kia Car Wash, involves adding 1,281 square feet to an existing one-story automobile service shop. This expansion re-purposes the space into a dedicated car wash facility, transforming part of the current dealership footprint into a new service area for vehicle cleaning.
The estimated cost for this renovation and alteration is $750,000. This figure places the project in the top quarter of estimated costs for similar renovation filings in Brazos County, where the median is $300,000. The cost per square foot is calculated at $585, which is significantly above the county median of $97 for this project type. The scheduled build window spans 275 days, starting in March 2025 and targeting completion in December 2025, a duration longer than the county median of 121 days.
Project Details and Stakeholders
Sterling Kia is the owner and developer of record for this work. The design firm of record is CDI Douglass-Pye, a firm that has registered six other projects totaling over $13 million in Texas. Jeromy G Murphy is the registered accessibility specialist listed on the filing. The project is privately funded on private land for private use, with no public funding indicated in the record.
Sterling Kia has three other TDLR-registered projects in Bryan, totaling $14,300,000, all of which have completed review. These include two projects valued at $6,500,000 each and one at $1,300,000. The firm’s portfolio suggests a sustained investment in the Bryan area, with this car wash addition representing a specific operational enhancement to the existing dealership infrastructure.
TDLR completed plan review in February 2025 and construction was scheduled to finish in December 2025; TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The status remains listed as Review Complete, but the absence of a final inspection record means the physical completion of the 1,281 square foot addition is not verified in the official database.
