WALLER COUNTY, Texas (Covering Katy News) \u2014 Olive Garden, Whataburger and Chase Bank have finalized ground leases for the Texas Heritage Marketplace, a $400 million regional development under construction in Waller County near Katy.<\/p>\n
Prime Location at I-10 and Texas Heritage Parkway<\/p>\n
The marketplace will be located at the junction of Interstate 10 and Texas Heritage Parkway on Katy’s west side, where Houston-based developer NewQuest plans to build 800,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space.<\/p>\n
Olive Garden will construct a 7,800-square-foot restaurant on a 1.6-acre tract. Whataburger will develop a 3,300-square-foot building on a 1-acre site, and Chase Bank will build a 3,400-square-foot branch on a nearly 1-acre site.<\/p>\n
More Than 620,000 Square Feet Pre-Leased<\/p>\n
NewQuest has pre-leased 620,000 square feet of the development, according to David Meyers, the company’s managing director of leasing and development partner, and Bob Conwell, senior vice president.<\/p>\n
“With a project this size, we typically develop it in phases,” Meyers says. “But the demand for retail in this high-growth area is immediate so everyone is committed to getting it done as quickly as possible.”<\/p>\n
