WILMER, TEXAS — Illinois-based CenterPoint Properties will expand Ace Hardware’s industrial facility in the southern Dallas suburb of Wilmer by 450,000 square feet, essentially doubling the property’s current footprint. CenterPoint expects to begin construction during the second quarter and wrap up about 12 months later. The project will bring about 250 construction jobs to Wilmer, and an additional 70 jobs will be created at the facility, which will serve 300 or so Ace Hardware locations throughout the region.
