A new, $12 million commercial development called Corridor Commercial Center is making progress at 6420 FM 1102 in New Braunfels.

Project details: The center is being developed by Corridor Industrial Group and constructed by Elm Constructors. Corridor Commercial Center will have 12 buildings across 100,000 square feet. The buildings range in size from 3,850 to 11,900 square feet and can be divided into suites as small as 1,700 square feet, Miles Payne, a partner on the project and spokesperson for the development, said in an email to Community Impact.

Phase 1 of construction—which was the construction of four out of the 12 buildings—began in December 2024 and concluded in September. Each building is for lease, for sale or lease-to-purchase, and there will be a build-to-suit option for upcoming phases. Phase 2 of construction consists of warehouse spaces with an office inside each warehouse, also called flexspace or flex warehouses.

Looking ahead: Phase 2 is anticipated to begin in December and is slated to be completed in July 2026.

The Texas House and Senate are launching new legislative committees to “get to the bottom of exactly what occurred” during this summer’s deadly Central Texas floods, state leaders announced Oct. 13.

The details: The bipartisan panels, known as the House and Senate General Investigating Committees on the July 2025 Flooding Events, will meet jointly to conduct “a comprehensive and thorough review” of the floods, House Speaker Dustin Burrows and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said.

Lawmakers will be tasked with:

• Identifying strategies to strengthen Texas’ disaster preparedness
• Helping communities respond to future floods
• Examining actions taken at summer camps in the flood zone
