Trae Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Houston Premium Outlets was orginally going to be right next to the new JCPenney. Simon just changed the name to The Grand, and bumped it up to a regional mall, like Memorial City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfootball Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headli...iz/4636035.htmlThe Houston area will be home to an upscale version of the outlet center when a New Jersey firm opens its Houston Premium Outlets development in the spring of 2008.Developed by Chelsea Property Group, a division of Simon Property Group, Houston Premium Outlets in Cypress will contain 120 outlet stores in 430,000 square feet of space.Based in Roseland, N.J., Chelsea has developed Premium Outlets across the U.S., including three Texas locations in Round Rock near Austin, Mercedes in the Rio Grande Valley and Allen near Dallas. Premium Outlets are also in Japan, Korea and Mexico.Chelsea has not released the names of any of the stores that will be in Houston Premium Outlets, but at the Round Rock Premium Outlets center, retailers include Coach, Polo and Burberry.Premium Outlets "carve out a distinctive niche" in the outlet center market by offering more design- and fashion-oriented goods, said Michele Rothstein, a spokeswoman for Chelsea Property Group.Designer brands"The notion of concentrating multiple designer brands at one center is a powerful marketing concept," said Ken Dussair, president of the Houston-based consulting firm CDS Market Research. "Simon can create an exciting destination shopping experience that will differentiate it from most other centers." Outlets offering any kind of discounted pricing on brand name merchandise are typically relegated to locations on the outer fringe of metropolitan areas, Dussair said, to avoid competing with existing department stores and specialty stores that carry the same products.Rothstein called Cypress a solid growth area with a convenient driving distance for more centrally located Houstonians.Premium Outlets across the U.S. have appeal for visitors to an area, said Rothstein, who noted that communities often include Premium Outlets when creating tourist travel packages for visitors in their market.Southwest themeThe single-level Cypress project will have a Southwest architectural theme. The property is off U.S. 290 between Mason Road and Fairfield Drive. To the east of Houston Premium Outlets, a 100-acre pro- ject called Fairfield Towne Center will be developed by Simon Property Group's community lifestyle center division.The 800,000-square-foot retail project is scheduled to open in late 2008 or early 2009.david.kaplan@chron.comHere's what they have at their Round Rock Outlet:http://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlets/stor...sting.asp?id=73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Hizzy! Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 To be honest, I can't think of too many new outlet centers that are built in core cities. The space required is usually harder to find in the city, although Houston certainly has enough land area.Anyway, it's good to have one that's located a bit closer to the city. The closest outlet center to Houston, I believe, is the one in Conroe. Am I right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Timmy Chan's Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 In case anyone's forgotten, the mall that was racing with Katy Mills to open up back in the late 90's was also going to be called Houston Premium Outlets. This is the long-talked about mall at the NE corner of Grand Parkway and I-10 (where JC Penney's and Cinemark is right now). I guess Simon/Chelsea has given up on the outlet concept for that location and moved it up to 290. Last I heard, the I-10 location was to become more of a typical mall with the standard anchors (although open-air), rather than an outlet mall. I just thought it funny that that same name (HPO) resurfaced 10 years later in a different location.... There is also one in La Marque. Don't forget about the Outlet Mall in Sealy!!!

Mom22Blessings Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 wow....a Burberry store. It's not like it's a super great store or anything. They are really small and have $200 kid's clothes, $300 scarves and such.(note the sarcasm)What this area REALLY needs is a mall like "The Shops at La Cantera". That would really make heads spin!!!Blah on them if they put a TH store there.

I believe the last time I was in a mall was 2003, picking my wife up from work at the Galleria. Nope, I take that back, I went to the Picadilly Cafeteria at Almeda Mall last Thanksgiving. I can find much better uses for my money than buying overpriced clothing...like food, drink and travel! But good for those who need to buy the latest fashions! SHOP TILL YOU DROP!!!

PureAuteur Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 How about letting the Cypress residents create their own shops and stores and leave the chain outlet mall companies in New Jersey. Those who complain about Cypress losing its natural beauty to concrete and ugly development can thank themselves for being so ultra-consumerist. I so wish I could go back and live in the 60s Houston, TX, when shopping meant buying things of quality and things that would last a long time.

I so wish I could go back and live in the 60s Houston, TX, when shopping meant buying things of quality and things that would last a long time. Even if you replaced every chain store with an independently-owned store, that wouldn't have any effect on the amount of "concrete or ugly development" that occurs in Cypress. People would still have to shop somewhere. Actually, I suppose that the only redeeming thing about such an arrangement (from your perspective) is that because independent shops don't have the scale to be able to keep their operating costs as low as national chains, the higher prices would be passed on to consumers, which would mean that consumers would be able to afford less, and thus reduce the amount of space necessary to cater to those consumers... It probably wouldn't be all that perceptible a difference, but would that make you happier? I'm with you, Niche...drop Starbucks from the list and you've got my list. Yeah, the only reason I was at a Starbucks was because someone thought it would be cute to give me a gift card for Christmas. Incidentally, I went to Half-Priced Books at Rice Village earlier today and walked over to the Istanbul Grill for lunch, and kept muttering to myself at every other storefront window, "who wears this crap?"

Seriously? Who? Why? Niche- If Cypress residents had control of all commercial development, it would look much different from all that NewQuest stuff. Do you honestly think they'd want to build cheap and generic looking retail everywhere? If they had an incentive to do so, they'd probably plan their development in such a way that blends construction with natural landscape, leaving a community that is aesthetically pleasing to look at when driving around . There is always a brilliant architectural style for any geographic place and culture. It's surprising that the residents, with all their collective money, just sit back and let their community remain a playground for corporate developers. Also, independent, resident-owned businesses would probably not worry about higher operating costs so much, because they are investing in their community. Cypress consumers would be much more loyal to these businesses than to the generic tenants currently in place. If higher prices reduce the amount of space necessary, then that's definitely a plus. I would also rather pay the higher prices for the improved aesthetics, the local ownership (knowing the money will go back into the community), and hopefully the better quality and durability of products, basically places that don't attract large masses of consumers daily who think they got a good deal because the worthless product they bought was only 3 dollars.

mrfootball Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) If they do it like they did the Round Rock location, I doubt there'll be any complaints. Some great retail offerings in those centers. I noticed the other part of the project will be a Town Center, which may be similar to Simon's Firewheel in the Metroplex. Simon is a major player. They own the Houston Galleria.I agree with PureAuteur about NewQuest, they are awful but they're small potatoes compared to Simon. I think what'll be interesting to watch now is how General Growth will try and 'one up' Simon in a few years with their planned major retail going up in Bridgeland near the proposed Grand Parkway.I think we're just at the beginning of what will be a huge boom along the Cypress 290 corridor for Hospitals, Retail, Restaurant, etc that will T-bone around the Grand Parkway.

One is remotely possible and probably popular, but the latter is not possible and would not be popular among that crowd.Also, independent, resident-owned businesses would probably not worry about higher operating costs so much, because they are investing in their community.

That discounts any notion of civic duty, except that they must provide the populous with those retail options that are demanded.In contrast, more expensive goods and services are never a good thing. People aren't stupid. They'll go out of their way to save money, driving the indy neighborhood businesses into the ground in the process. Besides, if you care about the trees, you should recognize that even though commercial strips are the most visible, the greatest numbers of trees by far are destroyed by residential development. Perhaps the residents of Cypress would be better off boycotting themselves?If you're absolutely convinced that there are people out there like yourself, that would pay money to preserve the landscape, well why don't you either 1) start a non-profit whose goal is to buy up parcels of forested lands for preservation purposes, or 2) lobby the State legislature for the creation of a taxing entity that would use a levy on property taxes to buy and preserve forests? Those are realistic measures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom22Blessings Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 The explosion of retail in Cypress is no real surprise. 10 (or so) years ago Cypress didn't even extend over 290. there weren't any developments past Telge. As soon as they started putting stuff up at Spring Cypress in 2000 I knew that whole area was going to become a huge mish mash of cars and concrete. Aren't all the homes S of 290 Houston? (USPS wise) If they are Cypress they didn't used to be.Before people move out there they should think about the consequences of moving to an area where there isn't zoning.

mrfootball Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 (edited) Thank you "Mom" again for your typically negative comments. I suppose then under that logic, nobody should move to Houston as there's virtually no zoning in Harris County?I agree that in order to save what people like about Cypress, we will need to try and incorporate or establish some sort of improvement district to regulate development before it becomes an FM 1960 or a Katy, or otherwise.Please keep this thread on topic.

Mom22Blessings Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 That's not a negative comment....it's a realistic one. I really do like the area...I grew up there! I rent a house in the Cypress area. I guess when an area goes unchanged for over 20 years and then suddenly explodes it's a shock to people.

Houston1stWordOnTheMoon Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Glad to see development there instead of more development in Champions/FM 1960W. Our area is being built to the breaking point. Maybe this will pull some of the traffic off of the FM1960W area......... wishfull thinking on my part ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornfan Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 These "Premium Outlets" aren't quite the same as the other outlet malls mentioned. They have much higher end brands than your typical outlet mall. My fiancee begs to go the Allen one whenever we're in Dallas to see my family.check out the list of stores http://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlets/outlet.asp?id=5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston19514 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 probably! I am very excited about these outlets! I'm not certain, but I think it may already be in Houston city limits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston1stWordOnTheMoon Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I'm not certain, but I think it may already be in Houston city limits.If it isnt, i will put money on it that it will be very soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A year or so later a friend took me out to the Premium Outlets in Allen and I was impressed by the stores and quality of merchandise. It's not your typical knockoff fare.
