FedEx N2.0 Conveyor Expansion in Austin, TX

The Federal Express MMRA project at 2001 West Howard Lane in Austin is a renovation and alteration of an existing building. The filing identifies the scope as an expansion to the current structure, with a total estimated cost of $1,000,448. The work adds 5,554 sq ft to the facility, resulting in a computed cost of $180 per square foot.

Registered with TDLR in June 2026, the project lists a target completion date of August 2026. That date has passed, but no plan review or inspection has been recorded since the initial registration. Consequently, the public record does not confirm whether the construction proceeded as scheduled or if the timeline shifted.

Houston Trust Company is listed as the owner and developer of record for this private, privately funded project. Karlson Engineering serves as the design firm of record. Casey Joe Anderson is the registered accessibility specialist associated with the filing.
