After more than six decades, the H-E-B at South Congress Avenue and Oltorf Street will be demolished and rebuilt.
The H-E-B, located at 2400 S. Congress Ave., originally opened in 1957 and spanned 25,000 square feet at its inception, according to a press release. It was later expanded to 69,000 square feet.
That store will be demolished to make way for a new, 145,000-square-foot facility at the same location. H-E-B will open a temporary store located at the adjacent Twin Oaks Shopping Center, according to the press release.
Construction on the new facility is expected to take two years to complete.
