mixed-use district under construction<\/a> on UTSA Boulevard, announced its first round of retail tenants, including a Japanese restaurant, Hawaiian barbecue and a brunch and breakfast eatery.<\/p>\nThe $350 million development broke ground last year, bringing a mix of 1,600 apartments and 200,000 square feet of commercial space to the UT San Antonio area near the intersection of UTSA Boulevard and Loop 1604.<\/p>\n
The development will sit next to a nine-hole golf course that is also currently in the works.<\/p>\n
\u201cNorthwest San Antonio continues to be one of the most dynamic growth corridors in Texas, and The Merc is being built to meet that momentum with something more intentional,\u201d said Rob Schumacher, the project\u2019s developer.<\/p>\n
Schumacher Interests owns two apartment complexes in the area \u2014 the Oxly and Lyric at The Merc.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, The Merc released a list of the first businesses coming to its newest development, which will complete construction later this summer and allow tenants to finish out their spaces to open in early 2027.<\/p>\n
The owners of Wild Goji Sushi, a Northside revolving sushi restaurant, are creating a new concept at The Merc. Wild Goji Sushi is in a shopping center on the corner of Blanco Road and Loop 410 and went through renovations in 2024 to add its signature revolving sushi bar.<\/p>\n
Canadian breakfast and brunch restaurant P\u00fcr & Simple opened its first U.S. location last year near Stone Oak. It\u2019s expanding into Florida and adding another location at The Merc. <\/p>\n
Two nationwide chains, Hawaiian Bros Island Grill and smoothie and juice store Pure Green will also set up shop. It will be Pure Green\u2019s first San Antonio location.<\/p>\n
Frenchies Modern Nail Care, another chain with an existing Northside location, will round out the group.<\/p>\n
In the press release, Schumacher said developers had focused on retail opportunities that would get daily use. More tenants will be announced in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new slate of businesses will open near the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2027.
