I'm hearing, barring some change, it's probably gonna be another two years, per an HEB higher-up.

They give a reason?
One reason might be the $$$ they're spending on renovating the store at Texas and Holleman.
I have heard 27-28 as well. They had some development milestones agreements that required what was done last year but real construction is a late 26 or 27 thing.

You all know that there is a HEB at 21 and 6 in Bryan that is only ~ 5 miles away from Booneville and 1179.
Krogers is even closer.
Krogers is even closer.
That one's too far off the bypass.
The left cannot kill the Spirit of Charlie Kirk.
The HEB on 21 doesn't measure up to the others in terms of quality and variety of items. Not even close.

There are three other HEBs in BCS, two are on major highways and one on a major thoroughfare. All of them are within an easy drive of Booneville
Yes, but you specifically cited the HEB on 21 as your example. Sorry.
4 other. The 21 store you mentioned. Tejas, Tower point, Jones crossing, Texas.

Kind of a confirmation of everything known and debunking the rumors update.

As the token coconut/Mexican of TexAgs, I can honestly say that this is a MEXICAN HEB. Everything in it is targeted to ONE demographic. And it's not me! I live in Austin's Colony and I will drive to Villa Maria or South College Station before I step foot in the one on Texas and 21
I do pick up at that one occasionally because they don't sell out of certain items like the others do.

Oh joy, yet another "multi-housing development." Those thing sprout faster than weeds. Why don't they just say "apartments, duplexes, or townhomes" instead of talking in euphemisms.
I'm sure people in Wheeler Ridge will just love it.
Still think the better place for the HEB would have been University and Boonville.
As a white guy who also lives in EaBry, I think the Mexican HEB is pretty cool. They have a lot of unique items and the people in there are very friendly.

I'll bet an appendage that Don fights that one

The people at HEB disagree, or they wouldn't be building one on Boonville in the (relative) near future.
Which one you giving up ?

That's a tough one so many are already spoken for!
Lemme guess, Don owns the multifamily development?

If he minded multifamily then he wouldn't have sold the land on the corner of Copperfield and 158 to a multifamily developer. Much closer to homes in Miramont. The multifamily next to HEB will be across the street from the entrance to the maintenance barn for Miramont.

He minded that enough to make sure the developer removed all the access points into Miramont. Including the fire/emergency services access.
New construction signage went up around the Miramont driveway across from this empty lot, indicating signal work. Is TXDOT (or Bryan) finally installing the traffic signal, and is this a sign that the H-E-B project is moving forward again?

I sure hope so! I do remember there was a deadline that had to be met in regard to the signal being installed. With that said, the signal could be installed and not activated for a very long time if HEB is still not moving forward with construction. The signal could stayed bagged for months or years, but that would not be ideal.
I will let everyone here know when it comes out for bid, if we are invited to bid, at that point it will be roughly a year to opening day.

Thank you, Elite!
for the 5 of us that watch KBTX at 10pm - reports are HEB Boonville is dead.

Just saw that too
I feel like the whole thing has been built on a bunch of "maybes" and rumors for years, that it was a 100% done deal and it would be done by next year sort of thing. And that it was always "next year".
Extremely disappointing
It was a bad location. University @ 158 would be more sensible
This whole HEB story is weird and getting weirder. I was told for years, by very reliable sources, it was going at 60 and Boonville. Couple years ago it changed to Allen Academy area. As recently as 2 months ago I was told both by CoB and HEB's construction group it was still on. And now KBTX knows something all of us that build these aren't aware of? Weird

Agreed. Not sure I buy something that Rusty knows but no one else is discussing or confirming. Maybe he's the great BV news breaker, but that hasn't been my observation.

HEB is phenomenal at personalizing stores for the area. I remember going to 2 HEBs in San Antonio a couple miles apart, one on 1604 and one on 410. 1604 had all the high end cuts of meat. 410 had literal pallets of sugar and flour in the flour aisle. No two HEB are the same and that's what I appreciate about it. I chose the HEB I go to based on what I need/want.
