CUSA #312 Victoria Recliner Conversion

Cinemark Victoria 12, located at 7806 N Navarro Street in Victoria, is undergoing a significant interior transformation valued at $2,680,500. The project involves the renovation of the 37,690 sq ft facility to upgrade the theater experience with new seating and finishes. This work is classified as a renovation/alteration under the TDLR registration.

The scope of work is extensive, focusing on converting the standard auditoriums into premium spaces. Two auditoriums are being converted to premium auditoriums with updated finishes, screens, and recliner seating. Additionally, ten other auditoriums are being converted to recliner seating with updated finishes. A satellite concession area is also being repurposed into storage space to support the operational needs of the expanded theater layout.

The owner of record is Victoria Mall, LP c/o Hull Property Group LLC, with TK Architects serving as the design firm. Ronald L Davis is the registered accessibility specialist for the project. The estimated cost of $71 per sq ft is below the county median of $86 for similar renovation filings in Victoria County. The scheduled build window of 116 days is close to the county median of 121 days, indicating a standard timeline for this type of interior work.

TDLR completed the plan review in December 2024, and construction was scheduled to begin in February 2025 with a completion date of June 2025. However, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The project is privately funded and located on private land for private use.

TK Architects has registered six other projects in Texas, totaling $11,550,000, including locations in Azle, Lorenzo, Odessa, Denton, and Texline. These projects are all marked as review complete. The Cinemark Victoria 12 project is part of a broader trend of commercial renovations in the Victoria area, which also includes projects for Victoria Mall, Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen, and the Texas National Guard.

The surrounding area includes several retail and lodging options, such as Best Buy, JCPenney, La Quinta Inn, and Fairfield by Marriott. The ZIP code 77904 has a population of about 29,989, with a median household income of $86,821. The median owner-occupied home value is $237,900, and housing is mostly owner-occupied. Victoria County’s unemployment rate was 4.6 percent in August 2026, lower than a year earlier.
