Alliance/North Fort Worth

The North Fort Worth and Alliance submarkets are situated along I-35W on the northwest edge of DFW. Both submarkets benefit from proximity to Alliance’s Global Logistics Hub, which includes the BNSF Railway Intermodal Terminal, Alliance Airport, and UPS and FedEx hubs. While Alliance has traditionally been a finite submarket mostly controlled by Hillwood, other developers and institutional investors have entered the area. There are currently at least ten other developers that have acquired or are actively pursuing developable land sites in Alliance. This marks the evolution of the submarket from one that has traditionally been tightly controlled with high barriers of entry, to one with a more diverse investment CORINTH DENTON 35E 35 35W

landscape. It will also bring efficiency to the leasing market as tenants will enjoy options to lease product controlled by a variety of owners. North Fort Worth is an infill submarket with few remaining large land parcels available for development. The submarket’s tenant base has a high percentage of rail users and light manufacturing. Alliance and North Fort Worth combined have delivered 1.4 MSF year- to-date and currently account for nearly 35% of the greater DFW market’s new development pipeline with 10.4 MSF of inventory under construction. The activity from a supply standpoint is being met by high demand with roughly 2.9 MSF of leasing activity during the first two quarters of 2019. FRISCO 380
