$250M Rail-Served Logistics Park Opens in Dayton

Gulf Inland Logistics Park, managed and developed by Liberty Development Partners, officially celebrated the grand opening of Phase One of development at the CMC Railyard. The event marked the completion of Phase One infrastructure and the arrival of seven anchor tenants, representing over 400 new jobs and approximately $250 million in capital investment for the Dayton area. Located on 1,350 acres, the park offers spaces for sale, lease, or build-to-suit ranging from 100,000 to 1.5 million square feet.

The park offers immediate access to Union Pacific Railroad and BNSF Railway processing yards. It is also just a 30-minute drive from the Port of Houston. CMC Railroad provides transportation, storage and logistics services.

The seven companies at the site are Phoenix Oil Inc., Omnisource LLC, EGF Energy Partners, GPL Development, United States Lime and Minerals Inc., Chemvest Holdings US Inc. and Midcontinent Steel and Wire.
