DALLAS AND FARMERS BRANCH, TEXAS — Texas land developer and manager Billingsley Co. will move forward by the end of the year with a 340,000-square-foot speculative distribution center at its 225-acre master-planned Mercer Business Park. The company officially announced its intent to build the facility after receiving light industrial zoning for 80 acres of the development. This will be the first building at the park, which is located at the northwest corner of IH 635 and IH 35E and stretches from Dallas into the neighboring city of Farmers Branch. Completion of the distribution center is slated for summer 2014.
