What's coming to Bridgeland in 2026: every project, what's open, and what's still a plan

Latest confirmed update (October 8, 2026): Del Webb's 55+ neighborhood opened for sales with an Oct. 3 grand opening. Bridgeland now estimates Terrapin Park will open in autumn 2026. Toro District's final development agreement with Harris County was still being negotiated as of the last public reporting.

Here's the short answer. Bridgeland's 2026 growth is happening in three places. Village Green at Bridgeland Central is the walkable retail core, and most of its first wave is now open. Toro District is the Houston Texans' planned 83-acre headquarters and entertainment district, targeted for 2029 and still on paper. And Creekland and Prairieland villages keep adding homes, parks and builders. Below is every project we could verify, what stage it's at, and where each fact comes from.

For scale: Bridgeland covers 11,500 acres, has about 30,000 residents across five villages, and is planned for nearly 70,000 at build-out, per Bridgeland's Oct. 1, 2026 release. RCLCO ranked it No. 9 nationally among top-selling master-planned communities for the first half of 2026, with 500 homes sold (same source).

Village Green at Bridgeland Central: what's open now

Bridgeland Central is the 925-acre urban core of Bridgeland, and Village Green is the roughly 70-acre mixed-use piece of it you can actually shop in today (Bridgeland; Shopping Center Business). Most of what the old version of this page called "coming in 2025" has now opened. It just took a little longer.

Confirmed open

  • H-E-B opened in October 2024 and anchors the district (Houston Chronicle).

  • Starbucks had opened by April 2, 2026, per Bridgeland.

  • JETSET Pilates held its grand opening April 25, 2026 at 20115 Bridgeland Creek Parkway (Community Impact).

  • P. Terry's Burger Stand opened April 27, 2026 at 20103 Bridgeland Creek Parkway, with its own entrance off the H-E-B lot (Bridgeland). We went on opening day, and here's our P. Terry's review.

  • Drybar opened to the public August 21, 2026, also at 20115 Bridgeland Creek Parkway (My Neighborhood News).

  • Jonathan's The Rub was open when we visited Village Green in April 2026.

Listed, but we haven't confirmed they're open

  • Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café, Crust Pizza Co. and Gelato & Co. are listed as Village Green tenants on Bridgeland's site. We couldn't find opening dates. Unconfirmed.

  • Verizon was announced for Village Green by Howard Hughes, with no opening date yet (Coming Soon to Cypress).

Office and healthcare

  • One Bridgeland Green, Houston's first mass-timber office building at nearly 50,000 square feet, opened November 13, 2025 at 20203 Bridgeland Creek Parkway (Community Impact). It was 80% preleased in September 2024 (Bridgeland). We don't have a newer occupancy number.

  • Memorial Hermann medical office building: Howard Hughes broke ground in August 2025 on a nearly 51,000-square-foot building at the southwest corner of Tuckerton and Fry roads. It's planned for emergency services, primary care, pediatrics and sports medicine, with a summer 2026 target (Bridgeland). A primary-care clinic buildout inside it at 20819 Tuckerton Road, Suite 200, is filed to run November 2, 2026 through June 1, 2027, per state construction records (My Neighborhood News). Whether other services in the building have opened is unconfirmed.

Toro District: the Texans' Bridgeland headquarters

Toro District is the biggest project on the Bridgeland map, and the furthest from done. Here's where it stands, split by how solid each piece is. For the full rundown, see our Toro District location and timeline guide.

Confirmed

  • The Texans, Howard Hughes Communities and Harris County announced an 83-acre sports and entertainment district in Bridgeland Central on February 25, 2026. It's west of the Grand Parkway off Peek Road (Houston Texans).

  • Harris County Commissioners Court unanimously approved the partnership on February 12, 2026 (Community Impact).

  • Planned components: a 175,000-plus-square-foot Texans headquarters and indoor fieldhouse, three outdoor training fields, 1 million square feet of office, 300,000 square feet of retail and restaurants, 250,000 square feet of healthcare and sports medicine, two hotels (300 rooms total), 1,300 apartments, a 25,000-square-foot Harris County annex, parks and 5,000 parking spaces (Houston Texans).

  • Game days stay at NRG Stadium (KPRC 2).

Agreements and public money (still being worked out)

  • The county signed a 10-page memorandum of understanding. The developer calls it a "non-binding framework," and the full development agreement was still being negotiated as of July 28, 2026 (ABC13).

  • The proposed funding runs through a tax increment reinvestment zone (TIRZ). Future property-tax growth in the zone would pay for $150 million in public parking garages and $26 million in roads and infrastructure, per a Texans email reviewed by ABC13 (ABC13). A November 2025 county engineering email said, "We are not in this for $150 million, but $250 million" (same source). That's an internal estimate, not a final cost.

  • Promised road work includes extensions of Mason Road and Peek Road plus hike-and-bike trails, according to Commissioner Tom Ramsey (Houston Texans). We haven't seen a construction schedule for these.

Estimates

  • Timeline: The Texans' headquarters, fieldhouse and training facility, plus a hotel, medical offices, retail and the first 325 apartments, are targeted for 2029. More retail, townhomes and a second apartment complex follow by 2032, with full build-out by 2035, per a project phasing map (ABC13). As of May 2026, the site was still undeveloped (KPRC 2).

  • Economic impact: The project partners project about $34 billion in long-term impact and more than 17,000 jobs (Houston Texans). That's the developers' projection, not an independent study.

Residents have plenty of opinions on the traffic and the tax side of this. We rounded them up in Toro District divides Cypress residents.

Chevron's Bridgeland Central site

Chevron bought 77 acres in Bridgeland Central in September 2023 and described plans for a potential research-and-development campus (Community Impact). As of October 2026, we haven't found any public construction filing or timeline for it. Status: unconfirmed. Our Bridgeland Central update explains how the Chevron site, Toro District and Village Green fit together.

Parks and trails

  • Terrapin Park (Creekland Village): This is the big one: 14 acres with two pools, a fitness center, sports courts and a community center, as announced in 2025 (Community Impact). It isn't open yet. Bridgeland's site now says it's "estimated to open autumn of 2026" (Bridgeland), which is later than the summer 2026 date it gave earlier. Estimate.

  • Lily Pad Park (Creekland): Opened March 12, 2026, with an event pavilion, grills, ping-pong tables and restrooms on Turtle Cove (Bridgeland).

  • Turtle Cove: A riparian corridor of nearly 16 acres, completed summer 2025 (Bridgeland).

  • Mariposa, Sunfish and Mosaic parks were part of the same 40-acre parks announcement in 2025 (Community Impact). We couldn't confirm their current status.

New homes and neighborhoods

  • Del Webb Bridgeland (55+): A gated neighborhood in Creekland Village, now open for sales, with a grand opening October 3, 2026. It's planned for 671 homes at build-out, from about 1,600 to 2,700 square feet. Bridgeland lists starting prices in the low $400s (Distinctive Series) and low $500s (Echelon Series) (Bridgeland, Oct. 1, 2026).

  • Emerald Heights (Bridgeland Central): About 350 homesites near North Bridgeland Lake Parkway, built by David Weekley Homes and Perry Homes. Presales began in early 2026 (our Emerald Heights story).

  • New builder: Empire Homes joined Bridgeland in June 2026 and has a model home open in Creekland Village (Bridgeland).

  • Prairieland Village opened a new model home park in May 2026 (Bridgeland).

  • Easthaven at Bridgeland Central (David Weekley Homes) appeared in the 2025 version of this page. We couldn't confirm its current status.

Schools, childcare and everyday services

  • Ivy Kids Bridgeland filed to open in April 2027 at 21414 North Bridgeland Lake Parkway, across from Pope Elementary (Coming Soon to Cypress).

  • Culver's filed for a 4,393-square-foot drive-thru at 9265 Fry Road, near Bridgeland. The filing shows construction running September 21, 2026 to June 25, 2027, so summer 2027 at the earliest (Coming Soon to Cypress).

  • Schools: We haven't found a new Cypress-Fairbanks ISD (CFISD) campus announced for Bridgeland in 2026. CFISD's November 2026 bond focuses on renovations, technology and buses rather than new schools. Our CFISD bond and tax election breakdown has the details. [EDITOR: confirm zoning for any Bridgeland address on CFISD's school-locator before adding school names.]

What we're watching next

  • Whether Harris County and the developers sign a final Toro District development agreement, and what the TIRZ boundary ends up being.

  • The first vertical construction on the Toro District site.

  • A firm opening date for Terrapin Park.

  • Which Village Green storefronts open next, and anything at all on the Chevron site.
