Rivian appears to be gearing up for a new sales and service center in southwest Round Rock, with a state filing outlining plans for a roughly 46,000-square-foot building and a $9.5 million construction budget. The project is tied to 140 Crossroads Drive near the northwest corner of O'Connor Drive and State Highway 45, but there is no public opening date on the books yet. For now, the proposal sits in early-stage territory, reflected only in state records that list planned construction dates.

Project filing spells out size, cost, and timeline

A project filing submitted Tuesday to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (Project No. TABS2026009872) describes a 46,018-square-foot pre-engineered metal building for vehicle sales and service with an estimated cost of $9.5 million. The record cites a planned construction start of March 9 and a projected completion date of March 3, 2027, all subject to the usual caveats that come with early planning documents.

Where it would sit in Round Rock

As reported by Community Impact, the filing ties the project to an undeveloped site at the northwest corner of O'Connor Drive and SH 45, using 140 Crossroads Drive as the listed street address. Community Impact notes its coverage is based on the state filing and emphasizes that the details are preliminary and subject to change as the process moves forward.

Who's listed on the filing

The TDLR record names CSW OConnor LP as the owner, identifies Reztark Design Studio as the design firm, and lists Mark Robinson as the registered accessibility specialist on the project. The filing labels the development as privately funded on private land and marks the status as “Project Registered,” which reflects only that it is on file with the state, not that local building permits or zoning approvals have been issued.

What this means for local Rivian owners

Rivian already runs a service and demo center in Austin at 622 Morrow Street, and a Round Rock spot would give EV owners north of the city a closer option for maintenance and test drives. According to Rivian, its Austin Service + Demo Center handles demo drives and scheduled service appointments.

Next steps and what to watch

Right now, the TDLR registration signals an early-phase concept, with an opening date still to be determined and a lot of bureaucratic boxes left to check. City approvals and building permits are still required before any construction can get underway. Community Impact reports it will update its coverage as new details emerge, and we will be keeping an eye on public filings and city records for any movement on permits tied to the project.
