As part of the Department of Defense, exchange shopping centers are the oldest and largest military retailers, offering tax-free shopping to authorized personnel.
This new shopping center will replace Fort Sam Houston's current facility, which was built in 1971 and remodeled in 2010. The 210,000-sf facility will open in early 2020 and include the main exchange, a mall with detail clinic and pharmacy, and a food court. Fort Sam Houston will fund 94 percent of the project.
Austin-based Endeavor Real Estate Group is developing the project while White Construction Company will serve as the general contractor.
