The Shops at Boulder, a proposed 9,000-square-foot retail and office center at 10200 Boulder Lane at RR 620 in Austin is scheduled to open at the end of August, said Hunington Properties Broker Evan Dyer, an agent for the tract. He said construction could begin in May.

Dyer said he is targeting medical users for the center but is open to other uses.

"[The center] will be what the market dictates and could be a mix like Crystal Falls," he said.

Hunington Properties is completing a development with retail, restaurants and offices in Leander's Crystal Falls neighborhood, he said.

Dyer said that although fast-food restaurants were interested in the Boulder property, he would not be adding these establishments to the center because adding a drive-thru would cause the development to lose substantial square footage. He also said he would not be including convenience stores at the site because of zoning restrictions.

The one-story center is proposed to be constructed of Austin stone, he said.
