In November, City Manager Jeff Downes announced that Sprouts Farmers Market will be opening in the space formerly occupied by Ruby Tuesday and Pizza Hut at 1099 Montgomery Highway.
Proceeds from the sale of the former library property across the street are being used for a development incentive agreement with GBT Realty for a retail shopping center planned for the 3.4 acres of property at 1099 Montgomery Highway.
Construction will begin early this year on the new Sprouts location, which will span 28,000 square feet and include 6,000 square feet of neighboring retail space. GBT Realty spokesperson Jennifer Weyand said the $10 million project will be complete in spring 2016. The retail space will be filled with both local and large chains offering clothes, services and fast casual dining, Weyand said.
