JMT OFFICE

The JMT Office renovation at 4401 N. Mesa in El Paso is complete. The project involved the remodel of existing second-floor office space within the Conventry Park building, utilizing the structure's existing elevator. The work covered 12,000 square feet and was registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in September 2025.

The construction timeline began in September 2025, with a scheduled completion date of January 2026. Although the filing indicated a finish date in the past, the project passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in March 2026. This confirms that the physical alterations to the office space are finished and the building meets the required accessibility standards.

The Shalom Group LP served as the owner and developer of record for this privately funded project. The design was handled by Carrera Group INC., a firm with a significant portfolio in the region. Carrera Group also managed other TDLR-registered projects, including the Franklin Apartments in Anthony and the Placitas at Hueco in El Paso, demonstrating consistent involvement in local commercial and residential developments.

The estimated cost for the renovation was $325,000, which translates to $27 per square foot. This cost per square foot is below the county median of $66 for similar renovation and alteration filings in El Paso County. The total project cost is above the county median of $204,300, reflecting the specific scope of work on the second floor of the existing structure.

The registered accessibility specialist for the project was Julie Ericson Gereda. The plan review was completed in September 2025, the same month construction started. The entire process, from registration to final inspection, spanned approximately six months. The building is located in ZIP code 79902, an area with a median household income of $45,333 according to U.S. Census estimates.
