A new life could finally be in store for an abandoned, space-themed McDonald’s concept that closed last year on San Antonio’s Far Westside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
CosMc’s<\/a>, a small-format, beverage-led McDonald’s spinoff that sought to compete with chains like Starbucks and Dutch Bros, closed its Potranco Road and Grosenbacher Road locations in the summer of 2025 after less than a year of operations.<\/p>\n MySA recently visited the fast-food chain’s former concempt building and observed new construction signs, paint, and scaffolding on site. Meanwhile, a real estate agent who now represents the city’s other former CosMc’s location at 8726 Potranco Road hinted that a new tenant is set to arrive at the\u00a0old CosMc’s building soon<\/a> but stopped short of revealing what it is.\u00a0<\/p>\n “The tenant probably needs to announce it themselves,” listing broker Karen Mitchell said about the property.<\/p>\n The 1,242-square-foot building has sat vacant for some time and is listed for sale on a commercial real estate site<\/a> for $1.5 million. It’s unclear whether McDonald’s has officially sold the property, as it remains listed as active for sale.\u00a0<\/p>\n San Antonio’s first CosMc’s opened near Potranco and Grosenbacher Road in August 2024, followed by the other nearby location in October.\u00a0<\/p>\n McDonald’s announced in May 2025 that it would shut down the experimental concepts. The two locations closed within months of each other.\u00a0<\/p>\n
