FM 1488 and Spur 149 intersection in Magnolia sees slew of openings

“I don’t think developers were expecting such a high and sustained level of support from the community for a development that wasn’t anchored in a suburban or urban setting,” Steele said.

Janice Kolin-Anderson, who owns Half Baked Goodness with her daughter Lindsey Kolin, said they wanted to be close to the H-E-B.

“I knew this was what was coming and that the traffic would be so wonderful,” Kolin-Anderson said.

Half Baked Goodness opened within the Heritage Green development on June 26.

Businesses at the intersection have also helped create around 150 jobs in the past year, a number that is expected to double as more businesses open through 2024, Steele said.

Steele said all three of the developments have a Phase 2 to their development timelines, with planning already underway in some cases.

“We know that the growth wave will continue throughout Magnolia and the southeastern portion of Montgomery County for the next few years,” Steele said. “We’ll see another wave of business openings in early spring and [as] summer approaches.”
