Marcus Allen Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Anyone know what will replace the SAMs NW of Hwy 6 and I10? Hope , hope, hope it's a highrise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTiger Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 A Sam's Club closed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august948 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 A Sam's Club closed? Yeah, they moved it to the shopping center at the sw corner of eldridge and westheimer. I'm betting an energy related tower will go into the old spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus Allen Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 A Sam's Club closed? I was actually asking for anyone who was in the know, not pithy remarks. Thanks for playing. The property bordering I10 west is primo. I am asking if anyone knows if maybe a highrise will replace it. I am not as knowledgable as many of you here, but I am honest in my intentions.

Trae Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 More parking for top golf apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august948 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Is that a rumor or has it been confirmed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Allen Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 More parking for top golf apparently. Really? That is surprising considering the location in terms of all the other high rises going up in the area. I would think the property value would be such that a parking lot wouldn't be as profitable. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually, it's the other way around: a retail corridor is dying if Sam's pulls out, unless there was some other pressing circumstance.

Marcus Allen Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 I appreciate that, thank you. I probably was getting ahead of myself. I just see all these wonderful projects going up on my daily commute, and when I saw the SAMs close and relocate, I thought, Awesome, here we go with another mid/high rise in the I10 corridor. I never thought it could mean the retail traffic is dwindling. Something for me to think about. Again, for me, it's like singing, I may not be the best, but I know great music when I hear it. I know architectural and development trends when I see them, and am hoping, as is suggested above, that it doesnt become a freakn parking lot! How tragic. Again, thank you for the clarification. Sorry if I seemed too defensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTiger Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Over in southeast Houston, the Sam's Club in a dying strip mall next to Mall of the Mainland relocated to the other side of the highway, which had the Walmart (had taken the jump almost a decade ago). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cla Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 It is listed for sale http://srsre.com/properties/1025-highway-6-north-houston-tx-77079 apparently, the new Sams at Westheimer and Eldridge is a replacement for this location. http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/morning_call/2013/09/new-sams-club-to-open-thursday.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august948 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Could be that the new hwy 6 flyover killed their traffic count there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Allen Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 Could be. I know that sort of thing is happening on Hwy 6 and 290. Those establishments close to 290 have taken a hit because of the overpass. Same thing as the other side of I10 and Hwy 6. The southwestern part of that section seems to be dwindling in the business traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
