Innovation Park is a rare opportunity to acquire 1,400 acres of industrial land in Bon Wier, Texas, offering a robust platform for data centers, timber mills, pellet manufacturing, BECCS, heavy industrial operations, and renewable energy ventures. Anchored by the forthcoming Texas Renewable Fuels Advanced Fuels Facility on 260 acres, this development represents a generational chance to own a premier infrastructure hub positioned for long-term growth.
Strategically located along Highway 363, Innovation Park includes a suite of existing facilities, such as a 250,000-square-foot rail-served manufacturing building, a 6,000-square-foot administrative office with a newer roof and pond views, and a 7,000-square-foot maintenance facility, all available for immediate use or redevelopment by a future owner.
The property boasts a powerful infrastructure backbone, including high-speed fiber with up to 200-gigabyte capacity, 10-megawatt electrical availability via an on-site substation, two high-pressure natural gas access points, and a water commitment of up to 9 million gallons per day from the Sabine River Authority. Investors or owner/users will also benefit from an attractive package of financial and regulatory incentives, including New Market Tax Credit eligibility, Opportunity Zone status, “AA” BDO Zone designation, and no municipal or state income taxes.
Positioned along a critical energy and logistics corridor, Innovation Park features 4,500 feet of existing rail infrastructure, with planned extensions to support future users. The site connects directly to the BNSF mainline and is supported by a $40 million state rail infrastructure grant for upgrades from Kirbyville to DeRidder.
Easily accessible from Highway 190, just 15 minutes from US Highway 96 and under an hour from Interstate 10, the park offers direct routes to Gulf Coast ports, key freight corridors, and major energy markets. Major metros, including Houston, Dallas, Austin, New Orleans, and Shreveport, are all within a day’s drive. Just 2.2 miles from the property, Windstream Communications delivers ultra-reliable fiber, ensuring seamless connectivity for advanced industrial and data applications.
Planned for evolution into a Level 9 Mission Critical Hub, Innovation Park supports redundant power sources including grid, woody biomass, solar, natural gas, and battery storage, offering buyers a unique platform for uninterrupted operations. Located in timber-rich Newton County, Bon Wier offers proximity to raw materials, light manufacturing, and a skilled workforce. The surrounding East Texas region is known for its business-friendly climate, natural resource access, and supportive governance, positioning Innovation Park as a turnkey industrial acquisition ready for the next generation of energy, manufacturing, and digital infrastructure investment.
