MetroNational went public with its intent to build a 27-acre urban infill development, made up of boutiques and known brands, restaurants and health and wellness services.

Located at Barryknoll Lane and Gessner Road, the new project will be part of Memorial City, a 300-acre mixed-use development. Construction is expected to begin in 2023 and completion slated for 2025.

MetroNational’s Jason Johnson on the kickoff announcement, “MetroNational has been working towards this day for more than 25 years. Memorial Town Square gives a nod to the small town feel that only Houstonians know and understand. Houston may be a metropolitan city; however, Houstonians enjoy having a place that feels like it is all their own.”

Besides the 40+ brands to be included in the development, the company expects a third of the project to be food and beverage purveyors.
