Records show the Department of Homeland Security, with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement named on the deed, paid just over $70 million in cash for a newly built 418,000‑square‑foot warehouse in Surprise, Arizona, near Dysart Road. The building, marketed as Surprise Pointe Commerce Center and completed in 2024, sits on about 24 acres with dozens of dock doors, truck courts and large parking areas. City officials say they were not notified and DHS/ICE have not disclosed intended uses, prompting local alarm and speculation that the structure could be retrofitted for immigration processing or detention operations, possibly by April 2026.
