HLCI Breaks Ground on Burleson Tech, a 632,354 SF Industrial Park in Austin’s Premier Southeast Submarket

Austin, TEXAS [September 25, 2025] – Holt Lunsford Commercial Investments (HLCI), a market- leading commercial real estate investment and development firm, announces the groundbreaking of Burleson Tech, a four-building, Class A, 632,354-square-foot industrial park strategically positioned at 7051 Burleson Road, Austin, Texas 78744 in one of Austin’s premier industrial submarkets. Construction began earlier this year, with project completion extending through mid- year 2026.

The Southeast submarket offers unparalleled connectivity through a robust network of thoroughfares, including I-35, SH-71, and US-183, enabling business operators to conveniently serve the local community while providing direct trucking routes to Texas’ major markets and beyond. In addition to the logistical advantages, the submarket’s proximity to Downtown Austin— just 3 miles—and adjacency to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport allow tenants and customers to benefit from the city’s amenities. The business-friendly submarket also presents the unique opportunity for operators to be located within Austin’s city limits while benefiting from a Triple Freeport tax exemption.

Additionally, the site’s proximity to a strong, skilled labor pool supports business growth and operational efficiency, while nearby communities and amenities provide a convenient commute helping to attract and retain talent.

 

Project Overview

Burleson Tech has been thoughtfully designed to meet the evolving needs of modern industrial tenants. The flexible design and efficient site layout make these buildings ideally suited for smaller tenants seeking high-quality, flex industrial space.

  • Building A will offer 140,916 SF of modern rear-load space with 32′ clear heights and 248 car parks, ideally suited for smaller tenants looking for functional and efficient warehouse capabilities.
  • Building B is a free-standing, 263,609 SF cross-dock facility featuring 36′ clear heights, 57 trailer parks, and 185 car parks. Its expansive footprint and cross-dock configuration make it an ideal solution for advanced manufacturing or logistics needs.
  • Building C will consist of 103,516 SF of rear-load space with 32′ clear heights and 119 car parks. The building is thoughtfully designed for mid-sized tenants seeking flexibility and streamlined operations.
