SAT TA-129 Freight Fried Chicken in San Antonio, TX

The San Antonio International Airport location at 9800 Airport Blvd is slated for a 1,154 sq ft renovation to house a new quick service restaurant brand. The project, filed under the name SAT TA-129 Freight Fried Chicken, involves remodeling an existing space with an estimated cost of $250,000. This specific filing was registered with TDLR in July 2025, with construction scheduled to begin in August 2025 and a target completion date of December 2025.

The scope of work focuses on the public-facing areas, where all finishes are designated as new. The filing notes that existing HVAC equipment, ductwork, and electrical panels will remain in place. Back-of-house finishes are also existing and will remain aside from necessary maintenance replacements. This approach suggests a refresh of the customer experience while retaining the structural and mechanical infrastructure of the previous tenant.

Harrison USA is listed as the design firm of record for this project. The owner of record is the Properties & Concessions Management Office, which manages similar renovation efforts at this airport. The registered accessibility specialist for the filing is Ronald L Davis. The project is privately funded and takes place on private land for private use.

In terms of scale, the estimated cost of $250,000 aligns with the median estimated cost for renovation and alteration filings in Bexar County. However, the computed cost of $217 per square foot is above the county median of $85 per square foot. The scheduled build window of 122 days is close to the county median of 103 days for similar projects. This indicates a standard timeline for a mid-sized food service renovation.

The project status remains Project Registered. The target completion date of December 2025 has passed. According to the public record, no plan review or inspection has been recorded since registration. Therefore, whether the construction proceeded as scheduled or if the project has been completed is not confirmed in the available TDLR data. The record reflects the initial filing details rather than a final completion report.
