UTX3 - Outbound Mods in Houston, TX

Construction on a 100 sq ft renovation at 4221 Way Out West Dr., Ste 200, Houston, TX 77092, is complete. The project, filed as UTX3 - Outbound Mods, involved replacing an existing overhead door with an automatic Bi-Parting Sliding Door. The work passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in September 2026, confirming the project is finished.

The owner of record is Cicf I Tx2M01 LLC, which also holds a closed TDLR registration for the UTX3 Warehouse in Houston. That separate project had an estimated cost of $2,500,000. This renovation is privately funded on private land for private use.

Project Scope and Design

RSP Architects, LTD served as the design firm of record. The scope was limited to the 100 sq ft alteration for the door replacement. The estimated cost for this specific work was $50,000. This figure is below the Harris County median estimated cost of $250,000 for renovation and alteration filings. The scheduled build window of 31 days was shorter than the county median of 92 days for similar projects.

Melvyn Archer is the registered accessibility specialist for the project. TDLR registration occurred in April 2025, with plan review completed the same month. Construction began in May 2025. The filing listed a completion date of June 2025, but the final inspection did not pass until September 2026. This timeline reflects the actual duration of the accessibility review and construction process.
