Developers to Repurpose Old SA Grain Mill
A 150-year-old grain mill and plans to redevelop the site into a high-intensity project were the subject of a recent New Braunfels City Council Meeting. The council gave preliminary approval to the unnamed developer to move ahead with the project. The site, located near the Comal River and the Tube Chute, is now zoned for high-intensity mixed-use, which will allow the developer to transform several parcels of the more than 9-acre riverfront area into a mixed-use development that includes:
- A boutique hotel
- Restaurants
- Retail spaces
- Offices spaces
- 400-car parking garage
The rezoning approval includes conditions to meet city goals, such as a parking study, pedestrian-friendly design, setbacks near homes, and screening for loading docks and equipment. The silos on the property will be repurposed as part of the design.
The silos on the property will be repurposed as part of the design, said Ashley Farrimond, a partner with the law firm.Farrimond said that the project aims to blend historic preservation with urban renewal.
