Creation Equity, in congruence with sister company LGE Design Build, will break ground in Q1 of 2022 on Mesquite 635, a 3-building, 555,790-square-foot industrial park located on the southeast corner of Interstate 635 and Highway 80.

Mesquite 635, a joint venture between Crow Holdings Capital and Creation, an alternative investment and real estate development firm, will offer three buildings of 159,728 square feet, 156,144 square feet, and 239,918 square feet. Stream Realty Partners‘ Managing Director Matt Dornak and Vice President Ryan Wolcott will oversee leasing. 

“The east side of the Metroplex is seeing a major uptick in industrial demand,” Dornak said. “But few opportunities are available, and the future development pipeline lacks for tenants ranging from 30,000 to 200,000 square feet. Mesquite 635 fills the market gap offering best-in-class industrial space to accommodate tenants 35,000 to 240,000 square feet. Being located at Interstate 635 and Highway 80 is the single-most attractive attribute of this project, which can serve the supply chain locally, regionally, and nationally.”

Pre-leasing demand for the project has already begun.
