Graystreet Partners’ Southtown San Antonio retail project is in the dirt. The firm purchased the site for the retail center three years ago, but has since been occupied with other projects. Graystreet managing partner Kevin Covey will be speaking at our July 28 event discussing the Future of Downtown San Antonio and why his firm began construction.

“The Southtown retail project will be developed to reflect the living, homeowner community down there,” Covey told us. “We are carefully curating the retail so that it can best serve the residents in Southtown, which is a diverse set from every walk of life. That means we want both restaurants and services, and we want to provide high-quality dining options at affordable price points.”

South Alamo Retail will offer 15k SF of prime indoor retail space, some of which is already leased to Brown Coffee, San Antonio Credit Union and Andrew Weissman’s Moshe’s Gold Falafel. Graystreet is expecting to have the center fully leased by the end of summer, projecting that tenants will be moving in by the end of the year.

“The building itself will be a design-forward building. Southtown is artsy, with history and culture, and we want to make sure we enhance that,” Covey says. The project is scheduled to be an adaptive reuse with potential improvements. Covey will be going into more detail about The Future of Downtown San Antonio later this month. Register here.
