Brick and Mortar District Set to Deliver First Phase in Early 2022

Momark Development, the city of Kyle and Cardinal MF LLC have started construction on the first phase of The Brick and Mortar District with plans to deliver hundreds of homes, the first of many retail and restaurant spaces and two signature public parks by early next year. Formerly known as Uptown, the 138-acre pedestrian-oriented mixed-use urban village within the Plum Creek master-planned community will become a regional economic, residential and recreational hub with approximately 2,500 homes, 150,000 square feet of retail, 250,000 square feet of office space, and 35 acres of parkland and trails when completed.

The start of construction marks the culmination of more than 20 years of public and private planning and investment aimed at ensuring that Kyle grows in a way that fosters economic development, community connections and a unique identity within the Central Texas region.

“The Brick and Mortar District reflects our residents’ desire for balanced growth and our willingness to play an active role to ensure that new development helps us meet our long-term goals and needs as a community,” said Travis Mitchell, Kyle mayor. “The city of Kyle and Momark are working hand-in-hand to deliver a unique place with profound public amenities that will draw residents, employers and visitors from South Austin to North San Antonio.”

The Brick and Mortar name connotes the District’s role as a place that brings people together in person, with a physical environment carefully designed to encourage social interactions, offer unique experiences, and promote health and well-being.

“People want to connect physically and socially with their communities, and we want to design spaces that facilitate those connections,” said Terry Mitchell, Momark president. “The Brick and Mortar District will allow people to live more affordably in the center of everything, with shops, restaurants, work places and world-class parks just a short walk away.”
