HOUSTON – September 18, 2024 – Gauge Real Estate Partners, a precision developer of premier commercial projects, has commenced construction on its latest Class A industrial project and largest speculative development to date. Marketed for sale or lease, Gauge Southgate will feature three state-of-the-art industrial buildings designed to meet the demands of tenants in the strategically located Southeast Houston industrial submarket. The development will offer 192,660 square feet of premium industrial space, with each building tailored to optimize distribution patterns and operational efficiency.  

Building A will provide 33,600 square feet with a rear-load configuration and prime Beltway 8 visibility, 2,680 square feet of permit-ready office, 28-foot clear height, 15 dock-high doors, and 31 parking spaces. Building B will encompass 77,160 square feet with a front-load configuration, 2,400 square feet of speculative office, 32-foot clear height, 19 dock-high doors, 53 parking spaces, and the ability to provide 1,600 amps of power. Building C, at 81,900 square feet, will have a dedicated truck court, front-load configuration, 2,280 square feet of permit-ready office, 32-foot clear height, 15 dock-high doors, 55 parking spaces, and the ability to provide 1,600 amps of power. 

“We are thrilled to bring Gauge Southgate to market, offering exceptional industrial facilities to meet the evolving demands of businesses in Southeast Houston,” said Brian Attaway, Principal and co-founder of Gauge. “Our broad expertise and dedicated approach have been critical to our success, and we look forward to employing those attributes towards our newest endeavor.” 

Adds Jeff Pate, Co-Founder and Principal, “We have long been advocates of this submarket driven by the incomparable dynamics created through Port Houston. Gauge Southgate is poised to capitalize on the global trade drivers shaping this region while also presenting compelling opportunities for occupiers targeting the growing residential concentration in south Houston.” 

Stream Realty Partners, a national commercial real estate firm, will oversee sales and leasing for the property.  

“Gauge Southgate is a testament to the growing demand for modern industrial facilities in Southeast Houston,” said Woody Hillyer, Vice President at Stream. “This development not only provides tenants with ideal building configurations but also capitalizes on its prime location with immediate access to Beltway 8. We’re excited to see how this project will enhance the industrial landscape in the region.” 

The project is expected to deliver in the second quarter of 2025. With close proximity to Bayport Container Terminal, Barbour’s Cut Container Terminal, and Hobby Airport, Gauge Southgate presents a variety of locational and connectivity advantages for industrial users. Located entirely outside of the 500-year flood plain and offering superior access in all directions to both Beltway 8 and Interstate 45, this project is poised to become a key asset for businesses looking to expand their presence in Southeast Houston.  

The Gauge development team includes co-founders Jeff Pate and Brian Attaway. Corvus Construction serves as the general contractor, and Powers Brown Architecture serves as the architect. Woody Hillyer and Managing Director Tyler Maner of Stream are responsible for building sales and leasing activity.
