Moody National Cos. bought the land at Interstate 10 and Texas 6 from Dallas-based Granite Properties Inc., which had developed the three-story, 50,000-sf Granite Park 10 on adjacent land.

The developer plans to break ground on Moody Park 10 in about six months, beginning with the 127-room Hyatt Place and 101-room Marriott hotel.
