Initially, Uniqlo set plans for the store in October 2025, with construction expected to begin a few months later in February, according to its original permitting application for the location. The Austin store was estimated to be completed by September 4, but now that date has changed to April 30, 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n

All TDLR filings construction and completion dates are subject to change at any time. In July, MySA visited Barton Creek Square mall<\/a> to check on the progress of the store, but didn’t see much work done on the\u00a0project yet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While there was no official\u00a0signage for the store in the mall, there was one empty upstairs and downstairs space teasing something “new and next” on its way. The new Austin\u00a0Uniqlo will be a nearly 18,000-square-foot space and could possibly be two stories since the Uniqlo at Galleria Dallas spans 20,000 square-feet and features two levels of retail space.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On MySA’s visit to Barton Creek Square, we noticed six empty storefronts where the new Uniqlo could be housed, but only one two-story space that was covered with construction banners. That space was located on the west side of the mall\u00a0in between a Lens Crafters and Claw & Fun stores.<\/p>\n

Uniqlo currently\u00a0operates\u00a0five Texas stores in the Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth area. The company also set plans for its first San Antonio store<\/a> at North Star Mall, with work slated to wrap by July 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Initially, Uniqlo set plans for the store in October 2025, with construction expected to begin a few months…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":431658,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,821,820],"class_list":["post-431657","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news","tag-mysabusiness","tag-mysastaff"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/431657","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=431657"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/431657\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/431658"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=431657"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=431657"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=431657"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
