Tiger J Kim's World Class Taekwondo in Missouri City, TX

Tiger J Kim's World Class Taekwondo occupies Suite No. 200 within the Shops at Sienna Retail center at 5822 Sienna Parkway in Missouri City. The project involves the renovation and alteration of 3,200 square feet to create a dedicated Taekwondo center. The filing specifies an open training area as the primary functional component of the space.

Project Scope and Costs

Malabar Hill Capital is the owner of record for this privately funded development. The estimated cost for the tenant build-out is $120,000, resulting in a computed cost of $38 per square foot. Aplanarch is the design firm of record, and David S Drepaul serves as the registered accessibility specialist. The project was registered with TDLR in July 2025, and plan review was completed in the same month.

Construction was scheduled to begin in October 2025, with a completion date listed as February 2026 on the filing. The scheduled build window of 150 days is longer than the 92-day median for similar renovation projects in Fort Bend County. Despite the completion date having passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Consequently, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record.

Local Context and Comparisons

The estimated cost of $120,000 is below the county median of $239,400 for renovation and alteration filings in Fort Bend County. The $38 per square foot cost is also below the county median of $80 per square foot. These figures place the project in the bottom quarter of costs for its type within the region. Malabar Hill Capital has six other TDLR-registered projects in the state, totaling over $17 million, all located in Fulshear or Texas City.

The Shops at Sienna Retail is located in a ZIP code with a median household income of $132,758 and a median owner-occupied home value of $367,700, according to U.S. Census estimates. The area includes other registered commercial projects, such as a dental office and a J.P. Morgan Chase branch. Fort Bend County’s unemployment rate was 5 percent in July 2026, a figure higher than the rate recorded a year earlier. This project remains a private commercial endeavor on private land for private use.
