Project Scope and Design

The facility features a slab-on-grade foundation with metal studs and a metal roof, standard for modern storage structures. The scope of work includes the installation of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. Site improvements are also part of the plan, encompassing paving, utility connections, and landscaping to complete the exterior environment. Dallenbach-Cole Architecture is the design firm of record for this project, which is privately funded on private land for private use. The registered accessibility specialist for the filing is Jessica Trevino Hamm.

Webb County has seen 19 new construction registrations in the last 24 months. The median estimated cost for these projects is $900,000, while the median size is 9,776 sq ft. Hillside Road Storage is significantly larger than the county median, sitting in the top quarter for cost. The scheduled build window of 365 days is longer than the county median of 240 days. However, the cost per square foot of $70 is below the county median of $95, reflecting the economies of scale in large-format storage construction.
