Demolition began Tuesday at Houston’s former Greenspoint Mall, where Lincoln and New York Life Investment Management plan a $150 million industrial park. The first structure came down during a ceremony marking the start of the work.
The planned CityNorth Industrial Park sits near Interstate 45 and Beltway 8. Plans call for roughly 1.2 million square feet of industrial buildings across an approximately 80-acre site, alongside retail and service space. Fitness Connection is expected to remain in a planned 45,500-square-foot facility.
The developers estimate the project will support about 300 construction jobs and accommodate around 1,200 full-time jobs when fully developed. Houston Mayor John Whitmire said the redevelopment, together with planned police and fire stations, would bring investment and jobs to the Greenspoint and Aldine ISD communities.
