Urbannizer Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 https://www.chron.com/business/real-estate/article/Hope-City-church-moving-forward-with-silos-real-15087333.php#photo-16964361 Hope City, a five-year-old church with bold ambitions for growth, has filed a document with the city's planning department related to the future development of 17 acres in west Houston where it is planning to build a new home. The church went under contract last year to purchase the industrial property near the northeast quadrant of Interstate 10 and Beltway 8 with the intention of turning the collection of warehouses and empty grain silos into a flagship worship center. After a period of fundraising, Hope City closed on the acquisition last summer. "What we're about to do, I don't know a church that’s done it," Hope City Pastor Jeremy Foster said in a July video celebrating the purchase of the property. "We're walking in and paying a crazy huge down payment on it – $7.4 million. And we have it." The church purchased the nearly $20 million property – which had previously been used for RV and boat storage – under an entity called Shadowdale LLC. A deed filed in Harris County cites a $12 million loan with McKinney-based Independent Bank. Hope City is a nondenominational church that holds services in high schools and middle schools around the greater Houston area, from where its sermons are broadcast and streamed. Church adviser Duncan Dodds, the former executive director of Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church, said last year that improvements and renovations could cost another $20 million and the new location could open by early 2022. The document filed with the city is a subdivision plat, which is a detailed map showing the boundaries of a property and any right-of-way and building lines. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DotCom Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I believe this project was cancelled. The owner announced 9/11/2022 that they were selling the property. https://hopecity.com/buildingcampaign/ Does anybody know the new owner and plan? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
