New Worship Facility

Northside Assembly of God Church is constructing a new single-story worship facility at 6501 N. Kings Hwy in Texarkana, Texas. The project involves the new construction of an 18,017-square-foot building, representing a significant expansion for the congregation in Bowie County.

The estimated cost of the project is $5,500,000, which calculates to approximately $305 per square foot. This figure is above the county median of $200 per square foot for similar new construction filings in Bowie County. The total cost also places this project in the top quarter of estimated costs for new construction projects registered in the county during the last 24 months.

Lewis Architects Engineers serves as the design firm of record for the project. The firm has previously been involved in five other TDLR-registered projects in the Texarkana area, totaling $30,000,000 in estimated costs. These prior engagements include various educational and community facilities, indicating a consistent presence in the local construction market.

According to the TDLR filing, construction is scheduled to finish in July 2027, with work starting in July 2026. Plan review was completed in August 2026, and the project is marked as Review Complete. The scheduled build window of 365 days is longer than the county median of 212 days for similar projects, reflecting the scale and complexity of the new facility.

This geographic classification suggests a lower risk of flooding compared to sites within designated flood zones. The project is privately funded and situated on private land for private use, consistent with the nature of a religious worship facility.

Northside Assembly of God Church is the owner and developer of record. The project is registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) under the Accessibility (TABS) program. The registered accessibility specialist for this project is Misti Casandra Cunningham, ensuring compliance with state accessibility standards during the construction process.
