La Porte Town Center Breaks Ground

Placeholder

La Porte dignitaries and citizens gathered for a groundbreaking celebration on July 4th as construction of the first phase of La Porte Town Center began. The project is the future home of the rebirth of Houston's iconic Gilley's. A full-service resort hotel and spa (brand to be announced) will serve as a key anchor for the project. Tenants have committed to about 60% of the space, with active conversations and interest rapidly increasing.

The project’s developer, Western Spherical Developers' David Miles, grew up in the region and is excited to bring new economic development opportunities to La Porte and East Harris County.
