Dixie Farm Business Park has been operating for approximately 22 years. The Class B Industrial building was completed in 2000 and features a total of 216,900 Sqft. Because of the smaller sized spaces and large number of tenants, vacant space is leased quickly due to demand in the area. There are 379 parking spaces available, with a parking ratio of 1.75 / 1,000 SF.
In South Belt - Ellington, there are 31 class B industrial buildings. In 2000, the same year Dixie Farm Business Park was built, 119 more commercial properties (office, industrial, retail) over 50,000 square feet were built in Houston, featuring 11,168,726 square feet of commercial space. At zip code level, there are 43 commercial properties, of which 20 are industrial buildings over 50,000 square feet.
Dixie Farm is located on Dixie Farm Road along the I-45 feeder. Convenience to I-45 gives tenants direct access to all of the major Houston freeways, with the Sam Houston Tollway being the closest. Approximately 2.5 miles south of Dixie Farm is Nasa Road One which leads directly to the NASA Space Center. Also, nearby is Ellington Field, a joint military and civilian airport supporting the U.S. military, NASA, UPS, Continental Express, and general aviation. The immediate area has very little competition because most other industrial properties are bulk distribution and not the smaller office/warehouse space. The location is convenient to all south Houston suburbs and even the Galveston area, approximately 30 miles south. The close proximity of Dixie Farm to strong residential areas allow the office warehouse property to thrive because it is the small local businesses that occupy most of these buildings and the tenants prefer to be as close to home as possible.
