A new retail center named The Grove at Harper’s Preserve began construction Feb. 2 near The Woodlands.

Houston-based Gulf Coast Commercial Group will build the center, which is located at the southwest quadrant of Hwy. 242 and Harper’s Trace, near a CVS. The Grove is expected to open in the first quarter of 2023.

The 4-acre shopping center will be the latest addition to the master-planned community of Harper’s Preserve.

Tenants committing to the center include the coffee chain Dutch Bros. Coffee, fast-casual eateries Freebirds World Burritos and Jersey Mike's Subs, and AT&T.
