This flag-flying 12-story tower planned for the under-development Block 10 West Office Park might end up hiding the renovations underway on the former Great Indoors, which you can see peeking out in the distance in the rendering above. Real Estate Bisnow’s Catie Dixon reports that Hicks Ventures is building out the out-of-business big box into a 2-story, 245,000-sq.-ft. spec office building. Plans include the construction of a 5-level parking garage behind the new building and a 6-level garage between it and this proposed I-10-facing tower.
Here’s an aerial view of the park and its neighbors:

It doesn’t look like there is a pass-through planned. If that is the case Sam’s Club to the east just got really hard to get too. Before, you could come from the west through the Home Depot parking lot, or from the east you could exit the beltway frontage rode and slam a hard turn into the Great Indoors parking lot. Now you can only get there by going through the Gessner intersection. Ugh
