Hillwood has landed forward financing for Alliance Westport 25, a 1.2 million-square-foot industrial building in Fort Worth, Texas. Part of the 27,000-acre AllianceTexas, the facility completed construction just last month.

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans provided the seven-year note, public records show. The loan refinances the property’s existing debt, a $57.4 million construction loan originated by Citizens Bank in August 2022, according to CommercialEdge data.

Hillwood broke ground on Alliance Westport 25 on a speculative basis. Situated at 14800 Blue Mound Road on a 74-acre lot, the industrial building features 40-foot clear heights, 188 dock doors and four drive-in doors.
