A Home Depot Regional Distribution Center is being constructed at 1776 E. Davis St., Conroe, at the site of the former Conroe Cresoting Co., a wood-treating facility.
The project is “the worst-kept secret ever,” said Danielle Scheiner, executive director of the Conroe Economic Development Council, at the Lake Conroe Region Outlook on April 30. Scheiner said she is under a nondisclosure agreement and could not reveal the name of the company. The building, which is under construction, has no markings or signage.
However, Nancy Mikeska, director of community development at the city of Conroe, said in an email that the building will be a Home Depot Regional Distribution Center.
According to Scheiner, the 600,000-square-foot building is scheduled to be completed in July but will likely open this fall. The project will help reactivate the rail spur that crosses Hwy. 105 into the site, and it also spurred the extension of FM 1314 up to Airport Road, she said.
