📰About Planet Fitness

A new Planet Fitness gym is under construction at 1050 US-77 Business in San Benito, Texas. The project, registered with TDLR in June 2026, involves the new construction of a 21,279 sq ft facility with associated site work and parking. The estimated cost for this build is $5,650,000, which works out to $266 per square foot.

Dmclf LLC is the owner of record, while pb2 architecture + engineering serves as the design firm. Peter F Grojean is the registered accessibility specialist for the project.

Construction Timeline and Status

Construction started in July 2026. TDLR completed plan review in August 2026, and the project is scheduled to finish in May 2027. This timeline represents a build window of 308 days, which is close to the county median of 249 days for similar new construction filings.

The project is privately funded on private land for private use. In Cameron County, the median estimated cost for new construction is $500,000, with a median size of 6,357 sq ft. This Planet Fitness project exceeds those medians, with its cost in the top quarter of filings and its $266 per sq ft rate above the county median of $97.

Pb2 architecture + engineering has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $20,422,000, including locations in Texarkana, Grapevine, San Antonio, Austin, and Lufkin. The San Benito ZIP code 78586 has a population of about 49,103, with a median household income of $44,158 and a median owner-occupied home value of $83,200 according to U.S. Census estimates.

Local Context

The Cameron County unemployment rate was 7.3 percent in June 2026, higher than a year earlier. A third-party Instagram post noted there is no Planet Fitness location in San Benito, with the nearest options in Brownsville and Harlingen. This new construction project addresses that gap by bringing a dedicated fitness facility to the US-77 Business corridor.
