Car lovers moving to Austin can rejoice as the famous company Tesla has inadvertently announced that they will be building a new facility in Austin, Texas!
According to a post by the Austin Business Journal, Tesla, along with Apple Inc. and Google Inc. are notorious for keeping their real estate investments sacred secrets. However, a source close to the deal that wishes to remain secret told the Austin publication that Tesla will be building a “state-of-the-art customer service facility on nearly 2.4 acres at the corner of U.S. Highway 183 and Pond Springs Road in far Northwest Austin.”
However, reports are ambiguous, as the company name Tesla is not located anywhere in the demolition and construction site documents. However, a Tesla spokesperson would not confirm nor deny that the company was involved – in a sense making it clear just by simply not saying ‘no.’
Local Austin real estate agent, Robert Lee, is a Tesla owner and he mentioned going to the current Austin Tesla service center located at 8609 Burnet Road. Lee told the Austin Business Journal that he mentioned to the service department that they could use another facility due to how packed they were. Lee told the journal that the customer service representative confirmed that they were in fact building another service center, so the leaked plans seem to be true.
Costing $3.5 million, the Austin movers at All My Sons were shocked that the construction project was not excessively expensive.
If you are moving to Austin and are a Tesla owner, be sure to look out for the grand opening of the new location!
