Plans are underway to open a Club 4 Fitness gym in Grapevine, according to a Dec. 17 City Council agenda.

Current situation

City officials approved a conditional use permit for a fitness facility to open in a 62,139-square foot space at 4000 William D. Tate Ave. The space, which is part of the Heritage Heights shopping center, was vacated by Tom Thumb earlier this year.



The action was taken during a joint meeting between Grapevine’s City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission on Dec. 17. Planning and zoning commissioners recommended the permit in a 7-0 vote shortly before council members also voted to approve the permit.


The details

Club 4 Fitness officials plan to revise the former grocery store’s floor plan to add an open exercise area, indoor pickleball courts and more, said Planning Services Director Erica Marohnic. According to the council agenda, renovations include:
  • 117,256-square foot open exercise area
  • Five indoor pickleball courts
  • Five rooms dedicated to group exercise classes
  • 375-square foot plunge pool
  • 1,265-square foot children’s play area
  • Six tanning rooms
  • Two locker rooms
No exterior changes for the building and site layout were proposed for the property, according to the council agenda.

Zooming out

The property is zoned as a community commercial district and features a multitenant building formerly anchored by Tom Thumb. The property is surrounded by community commercial districts to the north, south and east, according to the City Council agenda.


West of the property is zoned for multifamily and is currently occupied by The Pillars Christian Learning Center and Vine South Apartments.
