📰About Hotel Renovation
The Holiday Inn Express Conversion project involves a 45,405 sq ft renovation of an existing hotel at 12909 Interstate Hwy. 37 in Mathis, Texas. This substantial alteration is privately funded by Mathis Deluxe Hospitality LLC and carries an estimated cost of $1,300,000. The work is classified as a renovation/alteration within San Patricio County, focusing on updating the existing structure rather than new construction.
Construction on the site is scheduled to finish in September 2026, with the physical start of work recorded for February 2026. This timeline spans approximately 240 days, a duration longer than the 105-day median build window for similar renovation filings in the county. The project received TDLR plan review completion in April 2026, following its initial registration in January 2026.
Project Scope and Cost Context
The estimated cost places this project in the top quarter of renovation filings in San Patricio County, significantly above the county median of $250,000 for similar work. However, the cost efficiency is notable at $29 per square foot, which is below the county median of $70 per square foot for renovation projects. This disparity suggests a high-volume update with a lower per-unit cost structure compared to smaller, specialized renovations in the region.
Legacy ADPR serves as the design firm of record for this project. The firm has been involved in six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $5,185,000 across locations including Fort Worth, Colleyville, and Southlake. Their portfolio includes medical office buildings, residential villages, and commercial shells, indicating experience with varied commercial and hospitality spaces. Darrell Glen Smith is the registered accessibility specialist ensuring the renovation meets state standards.
Mathis, located in San Patricio County, has a population of approximately 9,474 according to U.S. Census estimates. The local median household income is $41,286, and median owner-occupied home values stand at $87,300. The San Patricio County unemployment rate was 5.4 percent in July 2026, a figure higher than the rate recorded a year earlier. This economic context frames the local investment in hospitality infrastructure along Interstate 37.
The project status is Review Complete with TDLR, confirming that all necessary accessibility and construction plans have been evaluated. The filing identifies the work as a hotel renovation, aligning with the owner's intent to convert the property for the Holiday Inn Express brand. No further public records indicate changes to the scope or timeline beyond the dates established in the initial filing.
