This renovation project, filed as the Seguin Center Store Remodel, covers a specific 280 sq ft area within the existing facility.

Project Scope and Design

Absolute Design Partners serves as the design firm of record for this initiative. The registered accessibility specialist for the project is Melvyn Archer. The filing specifies the scope as a minor interior remodel, indicating changes to the internal layout or finishes rather than structural expansion. The estimated cost per square foot for this specific scope is $893. This figure is above the county median of $93 per square foot for renovation and alteration projects, reflecting the specific nature of the work being performed on a smaller footprint.

Construction was scheduled to begin in February 2026, following the completion of plan review in the same month. The completion date listed on the filing is May 2026. This scheduled build window of 84 days is close to the county median of 98 days for comparable projects. The project is privately funded on private land for private use, with H E Butt Grocery Company LLC listed as the owner and developer of record.

Absolute Design Partners has been involved in six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $3,747,014. These include HEB locations in Austin, Hutto, Conroe, and The Woodlands. The HEB Seguin project fits within this broader pattern of grocery store renovations managed by the same design firm. The local area, ZIP code 78155, has a population of about 53,449 according to U.S. Census ACS 2023 five-year estimates. Median household income in this area is $71,367, and the housing market is predominantly owner-occupied with a median home value of $246,000.

Although the completion date of May 2026 has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Therefore, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The project status remains Review Complete, but final verification of the finished work is pending in the official registry. Readers should note that the absence of a final inspection record does not confirm operational status or completion of all interior tasks.
