This exceptional investment opportunity presents a chance to revitalize the historic 1924 Marshall High School, the alma mater of Lady Bird Johnson. Located on a 6.67-acre lot in Marshall, Texas (75670), this three-story, 129,693 square foot building is currently vacant and available for purchase for $3 million or partnership for $1.5 million plus renovation costs. A comprehensive $6.5 million renovation plan is in place, designed to transform the building into a state-of-the-art film school, incorporating modern facilities while preserving its historic character. The City of Marshall has secured Tax Increment Financing (TIF), historical tax credits, and a 501(c)(3) designation to support this project. Strong partnerships with film industry stakeholders are already underway.
