Freeway Revamp to be a Game Changer

In addition to Park 10, Beacon Hill will be one of the largest developments in the area.

WALLER, TX—Wolff Companies views completion of the Texas Department of Transportation’s eight-year, 38-mile $1.8 billion reconstruction of US 290 as the bellwether of a new phase of growth for that corridor. In fact, the company recently acquired 521 acres on the Northwest Freeway for that very purpose.

Located in Waller just west of FM 362, the property will be known as Beacon Hill with elevation approaching 300 feet, one of the highest points in the Houston metro area. With almost 4,200 feet of frontage on 290, Wolff Companies will develop a business park on the 251 acres abutting the freeway with uses ranging from light industrial and distribution to office and retail. The northernmost 270 acres of the tract have been purchased by Long Lake Ltd. to develop a master-planned residential community featuring approximately 1,000 homes.
