📰About Music Annex
Lamar University is developing a new band practice building, listed on the filing as the Music Annex, located in Parking Lot G-2 in Beaumont. The project involves the new construction of a 9,400 sq ft facility with an estimated cost of $4,600,000, resulting in a calculated cost of $489 per sq ft.
The design firm of record is The Arkitex Studio, Inc, and the registered accessibility specialist is David Clark Teel. This project involves public funds and is situated on public land within Jefferson County. The TDLR registration was completed in August 2025, with plan review also finished in that month.
Construction Timeline and Status
Construction was scheduled to begin in September 2025, with a completion date of September 2026. Although this scheduled completion date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Consequently, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record, and the project remains in a status where final verification has not been logged.
The project’s estimated cost of $4,600,000 is above the county median for new construction filings in Jefferson County, which stands at $750,000. The calculated cost per square foot of $489 is also above the county median of $147. The scheduled build window of 361 days is longer than the county median of 242 days, reflecting a more extensive construction period compared to typical local projects.
Lamar University has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $3,270,000, including the Dauphin Athletic Complex and the Lamar Institute of Technology - Beeson Hall. These projects are located in Beaumont and Baytown. The presence of multiple registrations indicates a pattern of development activity by the university across its campuses in the region.
Other registered projects in the same area include Bishop Enterprises, Exxonmobil pipeline Beaumont field office, and QuikTrip #4603. The ZIP code 77705 has a population of about 37,988, with a median household income of $49,964. The Jefferson County unemployment rate was 5 percent in July 2026, according to FRED data. These contextual factors provide a broader view of the local economic and construction environment.
