HNathoo Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 There was a sign on the property saying gas station coming soon. I didn’t think these guys were crazy enough to do it on $100Psf+ dirt - we’ll see. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyt36 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 This is the website I found ... operator of Buffalo Wild Wings restaurants. The Seaside Lounge across the street sure is busy. https://www.sparkhou.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amlaham Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 This location will be a new C-store and a liquor store. A sign on the lot also indicates a gas station, however, that isn't on the permit. These gas stations popping up on every major block are legit killing me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That "coming soon" sign has been there for at least two years. Though, I expect that having a gas station on this corner isn't going to be an asset to the neighborhood.

I hate it soo much :(, I know we technically need gas stations, but why do they have to be in such prime intersections and have 105 pumps?!

j_cuevas713 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) Yeah this is stupid. A gas station in a premier urban area is embarrassing. Edited June 30, 2023 by j_cuevas713 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasota Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Except that's not really what's happening. Limited access ramps will continue to dump high speed traffic into the city and run past this location, even if the main body of 45 has been relocated by then.

X.R. Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 The corner does needs some retail and if its combined with a gas station, so be it. And tbh, if you get a combo specialized grocer/restaurant/gas station like the ones you see on Almeda st or the larger ones you see in Sugarland/Pearland, thats a win for me. I'm assuming some restaurant component because that is just the nature of the convenience store/gas station beast these days. If Spark Hospitality is the same as Spark Hou, then their major restaurant holdings are BWW and Wendy's. There is a combo gas station/liquor store/halal mini grocer/Wendys in Sugarland already 👀 Plus, this is good for all those people in the apartments/townhomes behind them. No one uses the gas station across from the greyhound cuz that place is the wild west (I use it on occasion). I can't think of many gas/liquor store/grocer/restaurant combos in the surrounding area either. Wouldn't you rather show this is a potential retail juggernaut of a site through this type of development or keep it as a parking lot. Plus, who know, maybe there is no gas station and you just get straight retail, which is a big, big win (although it will have a large parking lot, most assuredly).

j.33 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I do wonder if they'll have it face the freeway or W Dallas. Whatever it is, hopefully it'll mask some of the light and noise pollution that the bar across the street creates. I do agree with all the comments, yeah a gas stations does suck...but better than an empty parking lot and the area could benefit from a small corner store or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate99 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Maybe my impression is unfair, but when I think of gas stations anywhere within walking distance of DT, I think of comparatively poorly kept properties and a persistent homeless presence. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 (edited) Records show a change in ownership at 705 W Dallas St. A convenience store and liquor store are being constructed at the location. In August, Shepherd Ventures, LLC acquired the property previously owned by Spark Hospitality, LLC. However, the managing members remain the same. So, this shouldn't affect the project's progress.

TX3G4R Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Selling my condo and moving out of that area was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. That area is horrible, and it’s a shame because it’s got location going for it. My quality of life went up by 1000% a month after I moved out of there.
