HOUSTON \u2013 (Realty News Report) \u2013 Houston-based Lovett Industrial has broken ground on a three-building business park that will bring nearly 670,000 SF of logistics space to a growing region for industrial developments<\/a> in southeast Houston.<\/p>\n

Located about 15 miles from downtown Houston, SouthPort 45 is being developed in partnership with national commercial real estate investment firm PCCP. The project is going up on 82 acres at 13400 and 13500 Scarsdale Blvd. near Houston Spaceport at Ellington Airport.<\/p>\n

The site is southeast of Interstate 45 and Beltway 8, just west of State Highway 3. The Port of Houston\u2019s Bayport and Barbours Cut container terminals are 10 and 16 miles away, respectively.<\/p>\n

Nearby, at the northeast corner of Interstate 45 and Beltway 8, a joint venture of Trammell Crow Co. and CBRE Investment Management broke ground Gulfbelt Logistics Park<\/a> last year. That project is planned for nearly 945,000 SF across six buildings.<\/p>\n

\u201cSoutheast Houston continues to experience strong demand from users seeking well-located Class A product, and SouthPort 45 is designed to meet that need at scale,\u201d said Nathan Benjaminov, Central & South Texas, Market Lead at Lovett Industrial. \u201cThe project\u2019s exceptional connectivity, deep labor pool, and varied building configurations and sizes will attract a wide range of tenants. We\u2019re excited to deliver a project that will support the continued growth of this dynamic submarket.\u201d<\/p>\n

Industrial leasing in the Houston area totaled 9.4 million square feet in the third quarter of 2025, according to CBRE. The Southeast Houston submarket was the most active with nearly 3 million square feet leased.<\/p>\n

SouthPort 45 will consist of a 395,657-SF cross-dock facility, a 176,452-SF front load facility, and a 95,968-SF front load facility. The move-in ready buildings will feature 32-foot to 36-foot clear heights, dock-high loading, and a 2,500-SF office in each one. Completion is planned for the third quarter of 2026. Richard Quarles, Joseph Berwick, and Mark Nicholas of JLL will lead the marketing and leasing for the project.<\/p>\n

Harvey Cleary is the general contractor, Powers Brown Architecture is the lead architect, and ALJ-Lindsey is the project\u2019s civil engineer. Southside Bank and American National Bank of Texas provided construction financing.<\/p>\n

SouthPort 45 adds to more than 2.8 million square feet of industrial space under construction in the Southeast Houston submarket in Q3, according to CBRE.<\/p>\n

Another nearby project under development is Constellation Genoa Red Bluff, a 240,041-SF spec building by Constellation Real Estate Partners at 2555 Genoa Red Bluff Road in Pasadena.<\/p>\n
