Creekside Development Adds Retail Construction in New Braunfels
New building starts and a planned 100,000-square-foot retail phase extend the construction program at the established 400-acre development.
NewQuest is advancing retail construction at New Braunfels Town Center at Creekside, where recent openings sit alongside new starts and a planned additional phase. October 12 reporting identifies construction underway for Chick-fil-A and Chase Bank within the established mixed-use development.
The property spans approximately 400 acres at I-35 and FM 306. The next retail expansion includes about 100,000 square feet near FM 306 and Sophie Lane, separate from the individually identified buildings already started.
Project at a Glance
- Developer:
- NewQuest
- Master development:
- Approximately 400 acres
- Additional retail planned:
- Approximately 100,000 square feet
- Location:
- I-35 and FM 306
Several stages of delivery at one development
CAVA and Potbelly have opened in a newly completed retail building, while other occupiers are preparing to join that space. Elsewhere, the two standalone starts represent a different point in the construction cycle. The additional 100,000 square feet is a further planned increment.
Those stages should not be combined into a single completion claim. A tenant opening, groundbreaking and expansion plan each establish different progress. They can involve different delivery contracts even when they share a developer and location.
Construction within an operating destination
An established shopping destination creates coordination demands around customer access, deliveries, parking and utility connections. New work needs to connect with existing roads and services while nearby businesses continue to operate.
The precise traffic and staging arrangements have not been disclosed in the material reviewed. They remain important project-level details rather than assumptions that can be made from the master development’s total acreage.
The schedule still needs a clear year
The announcement refers to second-quarter delivery for the newly started buildings without making the year clear in the reviewed source. No year has been assigned here. A confirmed schedule would resolve that point and separate it from the later retail expansion.
A combined construction value and general-contractor appointments have not been identified. Future updates should name the packages and delivery teams, allowing the market to distinguish completed tenant space from the next active phase of work.
