Keeping the old while adding the new in Victoria

​​VICTORIA – Development of the Tropical Pointe Plaza, a shopping center that will have nine spaces for rent, is underway.

The City of Victoria​ issued a building permit for the construction of a 13,838-sf building costing approximately $1.5 million, which is expected to finish in three to four months.

Tropical Pointe Plaza will be located in the center of town close to downtown and north of Victoria at 3202 N. Navarro St.​ 

Local family practice doctor and developer, John McNeill, wanted to keep the old trees on the property so the parking lot will be built around them.
