TCC's Remaining Property

Details have come out about the likely plans for the remaining property that TCC acquired in downtown and across the river that they’re not going to need anymore:

  • The approx. 47 acres on the north side of the river will likely be sold.
  • The block next to the courthouse, planned originally for a sunken plaza, will likely be sold as well.
  • Another city block downtown will likely also be sold. I’m thinking this is the vacant block which adjoins the Trinity Bluff development and which was originally planned for a parking lot.
  • Not sure exactly how the rest of the original campus property will pan out. TCC has said that two other buildings besides the two currently under construction will be completed.
  • In a move that might have interesting effects, TCC will also sell the May Owen Center at 14th & Throckmorton next to the Omni Hotel and Water Gardens. Whoever buys that property will also have a crack at the adjacent land that was formerly occupied by half of the old Lancaster Avenue but which will be marketed back to developers.
