HOUSTON-A joint venture of two Houston-based real estate players, AmREIT and Jefco Development break, ground today on the first phase of the Gardens at Westgreen, a $15-million retail and entertainment center set on 13 acres at the intersection of Interstate 10 and Westgreen Road in the far west submarket.

The 61,000-sf first phase, set to deliver in October, is about 45% pre-leased to primarily restaurants and bars, Todd McDonald, vice president of AmREIT, tells GlobeSt.com. The only tenant to be named at this point is Tokyohana Grill & Sushi Bar, which signed for 6,000 sf. McDonald says work could begin in 90 days on a 40,000-sf second phase if leasing and construction go as planned. That retail space is dedicated to soft goods stores and entertainment shops.
