99 Cents Only Store Under Construction on Broadway near Bellfort, Houston

Landed back in town, only to realize you’d forgotten to buy something for the kids on your trip? Well, if you’re headed north to I-45 from Hobby Airport, you’re in luck . . . or at least you will be once the new 99 Cents Only Store about to go up on Broadway (just south of Bellfort) is finished. Hey, most of those doodads are made in China anyway, and they’ll be even cheaper here!

A reader sends in this photo, and says it’s on the site of an old office building that had been demo’ed about a year ago.

Guess we’ll have to wait even longer for a 99 Cents Only store inside the terminal.
