A 78,633 sq ft tiltwall shell building is under construction at 5303 IH-35 N in Georgetown, Williamson County. Registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in October 2025, this new construction project is privately funded on private land for private use. The owner of record is Dri/Js Georgetown II LLC, with Powers Brown Architecture serving as the design firm and Ernest G Taylor as the registered accessibility specialist. The project is part of the Georgetown Phase II filing and carries an estimated cost of $2,628,835.

The scope of work includes a 47,797 sq ft one-story tiltwall shell building with associated site work. Any high pile foundations and tenant build-outs will be permitted separately in the future. The total square footage recorded for the project is 78,633 sq ft, resulting in a calculated cost per square foot of $33. This figure sits well below the Williamson County median of $110 per square foot for new construction filings.
