A lot of the land around 45 between 175 and Interstate 20 is floodplain for the Trinity River. There's also the landfill at 20 & 45 as well as the Hutchins State Jail. Not exactly the most direable land from a development perspective.
Once you get further south of 20 there have been a significant number of warehouses and distribution centers that have popped up in response to the inland port facility built near Wilmer.
