SpaceX Adding Massive Garage to Bastrop Facility

Often, when a company adds a parking garage to its workplace, most react with a yawn. But when it’s an Elon Musk company making the request, and it’s really big, people will pay closer attention.

SpaceX filed a permit with a state planning agency to build a 157,321-square-foot parking garage at an estimated cost of $20 million at 888 FM 1209 in Bastrop. Most supermarkets pale in size to the proposed parking garage. The Austin Business Journal reports that it’s unclear what this new parking garage will be used for. Construction on the garage began earlier this year in February, and it’s expected to be completed by January, 2027.

SpaceX’s Bastrop facility is a major manufacturing hub for its Starlink satellite internet service, producing terminals and components. It’s located across the street from Hyperloop Plaza, a Musk-owned shopping center which houses The Boring Company, and the new X (formerly Twitter) headquarters.
