Stockton Foundation Inc purchased a 165-acre land parcel in Cypress, TX in an off-market transaction. The property is located at 19835 Telge Rd, on the northwest corner of Telge Rd and Grand Pkwy. The price was not disclosed.
The site will be the future home of the Harris County Fair & Rodeo and Fair BBQ Cook-off, as well as a number of other family-oriented community events year-round benefiting the northwest Houston and Tomball areas. The land will be transferred by the Stockton Foundation for use as the new home of the Harris County Fair & Rodeo which has been taking place every October at East Montgomery Fair Grounds at Sallas Park in New Caney, TX.
Fred Stockton of the Stockton Foundation, who also serves as Chairman of the Harris County Fair & Rodeo Association (HCFRA), said that the site will likely have its first fair and rodeo event in late 2024. Several historic buildings will be relocated to the site including the 1.5k sf former Tin Hall caretaker house which was later converted to a chapel and will soon be renovated for use as an event facility. A large, covered rodeo structure will also be constructed on the grounds.
Tommy LeBlanc and John-Michael Kamel with Avison Young represented the buyer in the deal. The seller, Williams Family Tomball Land, LLC was repped by Wyatt Williams.
“Northwest Harris County is seeing a significant amount of residential and commercial development, making this site an ideal fit for the local community,” noted LeBlanc. “The Grand Parkway extension project has created better accessibility for the area and we anticipate this local market to continue to be a path of growth over the next several years.”
