Houston: 125,000-SF Yale St. Market underway, fully leased

HOUSTON – Yale Street Market is under construction south of I-10 near Yale St. and Koehler St., and the retail center is already fully leased. Tenants within the 125,000-sf center should start opening for business early next year.

Tenants include health club LA Fitness, home décor retailer Cost Plus World Market, bedding store Mattress Firm and organic food retailer Sprouts Farmers Market.

Ponderosa Land Development Co., Yale Street Market’s developer, designed the center on the former stone yard for San Jacinto Stone Co.

The developer is making as much use of the eight-acre site as possible by building up rather than out. Approximately 200 parking spots will be accessible on the strip center’s roof.

Retailer Walmart recently constructed a store to the shopping center’s south. Additional retailers established near Yale Street Market include Chase bank, Visionworks, Taco Cabana, SmashBurger, Chipotle, GNC and SportsClips.
