Motorists likely noticed the new construction at 4220 9th Avenue as the land was cleared, concrete poured and the shell of a building was built.

The property is being developed for a small strip center that will house four suites.

The build out is going to be used for commercial purposes, according to information from the City of Port Arthur.
