A Walmart Supercenter is slated for a new commercial development, to be known as Santa Rita Ranch Center, at the juncture of Liberty Hill, Leander and Georgetown, according to a news release.
The details
The store, with an anticipated opening in 2027, will anchor the retail project situated on the northwest corner of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and Hwy. 29.
The exterior facade of the 176,000-square-foot Walmart will be adapted to ensure it fits the character of Santa Rita Ranch, the news release states.
Additionally, the storefront is expected to create around 400 jobs.
Zooming out
The Santa Rita Ranch Center will be a $100 million property build-out spanning 400,000 square feet. The commercial project will be developed by Provident, known for its master-planned community projects and "built-for-rent" home products, among other commercial real estate sites.
Walmart's presence as the anchor tenant is expected to drive commercial activity at Santa Rita Ranch Center, the release states.
Though additional tenants have not yet been officially announced, marketing materials from Resolut RE indicate that Longhorn Steakhouse, Olive Garden, Ross and PetSmart are also planned for the retail center.
"As Santa Rita Ranch continues to grow, we're focused on intentionally providing goods and services that enhance the quality of life and day-to-day lives for Santa Rita Ranch residents," Ed Horne, developer and owner of Santa Rita Ranch, said in a statement. "The decision to bring this retail center forward reflects our commitment to creating a community where convenience, quality and experience go hand in hand."
