Best Buy #57 Arlington, TX - Reflow

The Best Buy #57 location at 1730 Pleasant Pl in Arlington underwent a $513,000 interior alteration project registered with TDLR in December 2025. The renovation covered the existing 17,931 sq ft sales floor, focusing on reflowing fixtures, installing new displays and flooring, and updating electrical systems to support the new layout. The scope was strictly limited to the sales area, with no changes to the building’s use or occupancy type.

Project Scope and Design

MJM Architects, the design firm of record, managed the project under the oversight of registered accessibility specialist Landy Perkins. The work involved a detailed reconfiguration of the interior space to improve customer flow and product presentation. The estimated cost of $29 per square foot is below the Tarrant County median of $79 per square foot for similar renovation and alteration filings. This cost efficiency reflects the targeted nature of the work, which avoided structural changes or expansion into new areas.

Timeline and Status

Plan review was completed in May 2026, and construction was scheduled to begin in June 2026 with a target finish date of July 2026. The scheduled build window of 32 days is shorter than the county median of 92 days for comparable projects. Although the planned completion date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection. Consequently, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The project remains in a status where the physical completion of the work is not verified by the state registry.

Best Buy Stores LP, the owner of record, has three other TDLR-registered projects totaling $1,263,000, including locations in Frisco and Houston. MJM Architects has handled six other registered projects totaling $7,738,685, ranging from commercial buildings in Princeton to retail spaces in Port Arthur. This Arlington renovation fits within a pattern of consistent retail improvement efforts by the owner and design firm across Texas.

The project is privately funded on private land for private use. The surrounding ZIP code 76015 has a population of about 18,540, with a median household income of $70,912. The area features an even mix of owner- and renter-occupied housing, with a median owner-occupied home value of $236,200. These Census estimates provide context for the local market in which this retail space operates.
