General Motors H Dock Addition in Arlington, TX

General Motors completed an $350,000 addition to its Arlington facility at 2525 E Abram, adding 8,400 square feet of exterior paving for the H Dock area. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) closed the project file in August 2026, marking the end of the accessibility review process for this construction.

The work, filed as the General Motors H Dock Addition, focused on exterior paving portions of the H Dock work. This specific scope of work resulted in a cost of $42 per square foot, a figure below the Tarrant County median of $175 for similar additions to existing buildings. The estimated total cost also sits below the county median of $700,000 for projects of this type.
