📰About Pitstop Express

A new gas station and convenience store is under development at 7331 S. Dairy Ashford in the Alief neighborhood of Houston. The project, owned by Dairy Ashford Ventures LLC, involves the new construction of a 5,500 sq ft facility with an estimated cost of $1,000,000.

Sahagun Architecture serves as the design firm of record for this build. The company has six other TDLR-registered projects in the region, totaling $3,404,212, including the Ambassador Services and Kenang Investment Group developments. The funding for this specific location is private, situated on private land for private use. The registration was completed in January 2025, with plan review also finalized in that month.

Construction was scheduled to begin in February 2025, with a completion date listed on the filing for July 2025. Although this scheduled date has passed, the TDLR status is listed as Review Complete. The public record has not yet recorded a final inspection, meaning the current physical state of the site is not confirmed in the official registry. The estimated cost per square foot is $182, which is above the Harris County median of $88 for similar new construction filings.

The site is situated near existing local businesses, including El Zorritoz Tacoz, Sarita's Catering Tacos, and a church named Rios De Aceite. Hackberry Park is also in the immediate vicinity. The surrounding area is part of ZIP code 77072, where the U.S. Census estimates a population of about 58,681 and a median household income of $49,893. The housing stock in this area is an even mix of owner- and renter-occupied units.

Other registered projects in the Alief area include the Belknap Business Park and The Ashbourne, both classified as new construction. The Martin Elementary School project is a renovation, while the Chinmaya Mission Houston project involves additions to an existing building. The scheduled build window for the Pitstop Express project is 158 days, which is shorter than the Harris County median of 219 days for new construction filings.
