Stirling Properties Welcomes Amazon to Fremaux Park in Slidell, Louisiana

Continuation of industrial expansion efforts in Fremaux mixed-use development

Amazon Logistics announced Thursday that it would build a delivery station at Fremaux Park in Slidell, Louisiana. Fremaux Park is the mixed-use property that includes Fremaux Town Center retail center, multiple multifamily developments, two hotels and the Dana Corporation Service center that will complement this project in the industrial park area.

Stirling Properties recently closed on the sale of a 30-acre land parcel for the construction of the 141,000-square-foot Amazon facility located at 1914 Town Center Parkway near the intersection of Old Spanish Trail. Groundbreaking and construction timing will be announced soon. The facility is expected to be open in early 2022.

Ryan Pécot, Senior Retail Leasing and Development Advisor with Stirling Properties, represented the landlord in the transaction.

Packages are shipped to delivery stations from nearby fulfillment and sorting centers and loaded onto trucks for final delivery to customers. This marks the first Amazon delivery station in St. Tammany Parish and the third in Louisiana. It is expected to house roughly 950 Amazon Prime vans to serve St. Tammany Parish and surrounding communities. There are 150 similar Amazon delivery stations across the U.S. Amazon said the new station would create hundreds of full- and part-time jobs.

“Stirling Properties is excited to officially welcome Amazon to Fremaux Park and provide an ideal location here in Slidell to house this facility—the first of its kind in St. Tammany Parish. This new delivery station is a continuation of our industrial real estate expansion efforts. Logistics, fulfillment and last-mile distribution centers will only play a more critical role in the future of retail and commercial real estate. We hope to attract more industrial facilities to the area to further bolster and support the economic growth of Slidell and our surrounding region,” said Townsend Underhill, President of Development for Stirling Properties.

Fremaux Park is part of the roughly 350-acre regional mixed-use development located at the southwest corner of Interstate 10 and Fremaux Avenue in Slidell, Louisiana. It includes Retreat at Fremaux Town Center luxury residential apartments, The Mason Fremaux Park apartment community (under construction), Springhill Suites by Marriott (under construction) and Dana Inc. Service & Assembly Center. The adjoining Fremaux Town Center, anchored by Dillard’s, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Kohl’s and Best Buy, includes more than 660,000 square feet of retail and restaurant options. Additional phases are forthcoming with added residential, retail, industrial and office park. Fremaux Park is a Stirling Properties development.

  1. I’m located right behind the Amazon location on coast blvd. I’m not sure if you all have a 24hr restoration team at your disposal but I would like to get in contact and possibly be that team that you can depend on for all the needs.

  2. Please build some type of attraction for teens and young adults, also a amusement park for the little ones and younger kids

  3. Just wanted to say that Fremaux Town Center has been a welcomed addition to the Slidell Area.

    To further the success of Fremaux Town Center, I am requesting that the following items be included in your master plan:
    (1) Costco
    (2) Bowling and Arcade Facility
    (3) Indoor Ice Skating Rink
    (4) Movie Theater with Arcade Room
    (5) Putt Putt Golf Course
    (6) And, anything else that you might consider for entertainment for the community and surrounding areas

    Thank you for considering these above items in your master plan (Fremaux Town Center).

    I’m sure each one of these above items will be a contributing factor in the huge success for visitors and the surrounding communities.

    Once again, thank you for your time and consideration.
