McDonald's to join new Katy Park HEB shopping center

KATY, TX (Covering Katy News) – McDonald's will join HEB's new Katy Park location according to the developer's site plans.

The fast-food hamburger chain will occupy a stand-alone building directly across from the main entrance to Katy Park on Morton Ranch Road near Katy Hockley Cutoff Road. Chase Bank will build on a similar-sized lot and occupy a stand-alone building next to McDonald's.

McDonald's and Chase have yet to reveal when they plan to open. The developer's site plan shows two other lots available for stand-alone buildings along Morton Ranch Road.

The store will have a drive-through pharmacy, gasoline pumps, and a car wash.

Prior to breaking ground in 2023, HEB Project Manager Beth Tschirhart told Covering Katy News that she expects the store to open in March 2024. There is a sign on the property promoting a Spring 2024 opening.

Being across the street from Katy Park increases the property's value for retailers. According to the developer, the 100-acre Katy Park, operated by Harris County, attracts more than 700,000 visitors annually for its 24 baseball and soccer fields used by numerous youth sports leagues in the Katy, West Houston area.

The store is still under construction. See the photos below that were taken by Covering Katy News on January 13, 2024.
