Cost and Scale Analysis

The total estimated cost of $1,400,000 places this project above the Bexar County median for new construction, which stands at $600,000. The middle half of comparable projects ranges from $217,000 to $2,000,000. The project size of 18,000 sq ft is significantly larger than the county median size of 6,358 sq ft. However, the cost per square foot of $78 is below the county median of $115 per square foot.
