📰About Black Rock Coffee
Black Rock Coffee is constructing a new 1,627 sq ft shop at 601 Knights Way in Harker Heights, Texas. The project, registered with TDLR as Black Rock Coffee - Harker Heights, TX, is a new construction effort valued at $1,100,000. This compact footprint places the build significantly above the median size for similar new construction filings in Bell County, which typically range closer to 6,585 sq ft.
Project Scope and Development
Wheelhouse Development serves as the owner of record for this privately funded project on private land. Franz Architects is the design firm of record, responsible for the plans that TDLR completed reviewing in May 2025. The filing specifies the construction of a new Black Rock Coffee shop, with an estimated cost of $676 per square foot. This rate is above the Bell County median of $151 per square foot for new construction projects, reflecting the specialized nature of the build.
Construction was scheduled to begin in June 2025 with a target completion date of December 2025. The planned build window of 199 days is close to the county median of 242 days for similar projects. While the scheduled completion date has passed, the public record indicates that TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Consequently, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record, and the business status remains unverified by the registration data.
Wheelhouse Development has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $3,927,000, including locations in Lubbock, Amarillo, Abilene, Waco, and Fort Worth. All of these previous projects are marked as closed. Franz Architects has also worked on six other projects totaling $4,235,000, with several in Waco and Austin in review or registered status. This project fits within a pattern of small-to-mid-size commercial developments in the region.
The location is in ZIP code 76548, where the U.S. Census estimates a population of about 33,071 and a median household income of $80,847. Nearby businesses include Taqueria Mexico, O'Reilly Auto Parts, and Dollar General. The area profile suggests a stable, owner-occupied housing market with a median home value of $268,000. This context places the new coffee shop within a established commercial corridor in Harker Heights.
