The planned Boot Barn Texas City store would bring approximately 11,000 square feet of retail space to Texas City Bay. Both landlord preparation and tenant-improvement projects now appear in state construction records.
The planned location at 3501 Palmer Highway would bring western footwear, apparel and workwear to an established shopping center. It also adds a local chapter to the retailer’s rapid national expansion, as Boot Barn continues opening dozens of physical stores each year.
Boot Barn Texas City Construction Plans
The project begins with an existing retail space. A separate registration titled “Landlord Work for Boot Barn Texas City” covers approximately 10,958 square feet and calls for interior demolition and new heating, ventilation and air-conditioning equipment.
That landlord scope carries an estimated construction value of $200,000. Its purpose is to prepare the space for Boot Barn before the retailer completes its own interior.
The newer tenant-improvement registration outlines approximately 11,000 square feet of work, including walls, finishes, fixtures and paint. It lists a separate $350,000 construction estimate, Brixmor Holdings 12 SPE LLC as owner and ArcVision as the design firm.
Together, the filings describe a clear sequence: prepare the existing space, update building equipment and finish the store interior. They provide a defined construction path for the retailer beyond a tenant name on a leasing announcement.
The Boot Barn filing, TABS2027001761, projects work from November 16, 2026, through March 15, 2027. These are estimated construction dates, not an announced opening date.
Boot Barn Texas City Plans Fit a National Expansion
Boot Barn reported 27 new store openings in its first quarter of fiscal 2027, bringing its total to 566 stores at quarter-end. Its first-quarter investor report also outlined plans to open 70 stores during the fiscal year ending March 27, 2027.
That follows 80 openings in fiscal 2026, according to the company’s year-end results. The company’s latest first-quarter sales rose 17.7% to $593.5 million, while consolidated same-store sales increased 4.7%.
The Boot Barn Texas City project arrives while the retailer is investing heavily in additional storefronts. TCM has also covered Boot Barn’s plans in Fulshear, another example of its Texas development activity.
Company filings put its average store at approximately 11,400 selling square feet. The Texas City construction area is in that general size range, although selling space and total project area are different measures. The square footage alone does not suggest a new prototype.
An Established Shopping Center on Palmer Highway
Brixmor describes Texas City Bay as a 224,884-square-foot, Kroger-anchored center. Its tenant mix includes Burlington, Harbor Freight, Planet Fitness and Five Below, along with restaurants and service businesses.
That gives the planned store a setting with existing shopping, fitness and everyday-service destinations. Boot Barn’s public filings identify co-tenancy, visibility, traffic and accessibility among the factors it considers when selecting sites.
Western Wear and Workwear in an Industrial Market
Boot Barn’s merchandise extends beyond western fashion to work boots, workwear and accessories. That mix gives the retailer relevance in a market with a substantial industrial employment base.
Brixmor’s marketing highlights the Port of Texas City and nearby refining operations. Those industries provide useful local context, although they do not establish who will shop at the future store.
Boot Barn already maintains a presence elsewhere in the broader Texas City/Dickinson retail market. The Palmer Highway project represents continued investment in that area; the available information does not establish a relocation or closure of an existing store.
The Boot Barn Texas City plans outline how an existing space at the shopping center would become a new retail destination. For the retailer, they mark another planned Texas store during a period of sustained national expansion.
