Lone Star Market in San Antonio, TX

Texaco Food Mart at 1515 North New Braunfels in San Antonio is being renovated into Lone Star Market. The 5,595-square-foot building is undergoing a renovation and alteration project with an estimated cost of $100,000. This figure equates to $18 per square foot, which is below the median cost per square foot of $85 for similar renovation filings in Bexar County. Sugarland Petroleum INC is the owner of record for this specific project.

The scope of work involves converting the existing food mart into the new Lone Star Market location. Shemmeri Architects LLC serves as the design firm of record, and Jack Randall Roseberry is the registered accessibility specialist. The project is privately funded and located on private land. TDLR completed the plan review process in May 2025, establishing the regulatory framework for the construction phase. This registration allows the project to proceed under state accessibility standards.

Construction Timeline and Status

Construction was scheduled to begin in August 2025, with a target completion date of December 2025. The scheduled build window of 122 days is close to the county median of 103 days for similar projects. Although the scheduled completion date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Therefore, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record, and it is not possible to verify if the work is finished based solely on the registration data.

City of San Antonio permit records show two permits issued at this street address between June 2025 and February 2026. These include one Electrical Completion Permit and one Plumbing General Permit. The most recent permit on file is for electrical completion. These municipal records align with the timeline of a renovation project but do not independently confirm the final occupancy status of the business.

Sugarland Petroleum INC has one other TDLR-registered project, a proposed convenience store in Houston with an estimated cost of $604,000. This San Antonio project is distinct from that Houston filing. The local area profile for ZIP code 78208 indicates a population of about 3,877 and a median household income of $23,194, according to U.S. Census estimates. The housing stock in this area is mostly renter-occupied, with a median owner-occupied home value of $125,000.

The project registration reflects a specific scope of work focused on converting the existing food mart into Lone Star Market. The financial scale of the renovation is modest compared to the median estimated cost of $250,000 for renovation filings in Bexar County. This places the project in the bottom quarter of cost estimates for its type. The lack of a recorded final inspection means that public records do not yet provide a definitive status on the completion of the physical work.
