HOUSTON – May 27, 2026 – Stream Realty Partners, a national commercial real estate firm offering an integrated platform of services, announces the groundbreaking of Core5 Logistics Center at Airtex (C5LC at Airtex), a new two-building Class A industrial development totaling more than 858,000 square feet in Houston’s North submarket. Located at 20320 and 20440 West Hardy Road, the project is slated to deliver in the first quarter of 2027.
Developed by Core5 Industrial Partners, C5LC at Airtex will bring a unique large-scale industrial offering to one of Houston’s most active yet land-constrained industrial corridors. While development activity in the North submarket remains elevated—with nearly 5.9 million square feet underway across 21 buildings—the majority of projects currently under construction range between 130,000 and 250,000 square feet. C5LC at Airtex stands apart as one of the only developments currently underway offering space between 200,000 and 300,000 square feet, while also delivering a cross-dock building exceeding 600,000 square feet.
The development will feature direct access to the Hardy Toll Road, Interstate 45, and Beltway 8, providing regional connectivity throughout the greater Houston market. Additionally, the site offers approximately 4,000 feet of frontage along the Hardy Toll Road, creating a highly visible location and significant branding opportunity for future tenants.
Building 1 will total 245,574 square feet and feature a front-load configuration with a 32-foot clear height, 49 dock-high doors, two drive-in doors, a 185-foot truck court depth, ample auto and trailer parking, and an ESFR sprinkler system.
Building 2 will total 613,208 square feet and feature a cross-dock configuration with a 40-foot clear height, 124 dock-high doors, four drive-in doors, a 185-foot truck court depth, ample auto and trailer parking, and an ESFR sprinkler system.
“This two-building development reflects our continued commitment to delivering best-in-class industrial product in one of Houston’s most land-constrained submarkets,” said Liam Logan, Vice President at Core5 Industrial Partners. “With its proximity just west of George Bush Intercontinental Airport and its position as one of the last remaining sites of scale in the North submarket, we are incredibly excited about this opportunity and confident the project will meet the sustained demand we’ve seen in the market over the past several quarters.”
Stream has also been awarded the leasing assignment for the development, with a team led by Executive Vice President Garret Geaccone, Senior Vice President Boone Smith, and Associate Wilson Kelsey.
“Core5 Logistics Center at Airtex fills a critical gap in Houston’s North industrial market by delivering both scale and functionality at a time when options for large-format users remain extremely limited,” said Geaccone. “Its proximity to the Hardy Toll Road, I-45, and Beltway 8 makes it one of the most accessible large-format opportunities in the submarket, and we expect it to draw strong interest from distribution and manufacturing users looking to serve the broader Houston market.”
