About San Jacinto Mall

In its heyday, San Jacinto Mall was a bustling town center for the residents of Baytown, Texas. However, over the past two decades, the property fell into disrepair, losing retailers, and market share. Fidelis Realty Partners purchased the property in 2015, with the intent to do a major renovation. In early 2019, after years of planning and negotiations, Phase 1 of the renovation was implemented. Approximately a third of the mall was demolished leaving just a dozen stores remaining.

San Jacinto Mall will officially close its doors forever, January 5, 2020, making Holiday 2019 the center's 38th and final Christmas Season. In its place, Fidelis is developing San Jacinto Marketplace, an open-air a family-friendly leading shopping destination with a wide variety of tenants. Some stores are expected to open as early as Fall 2020.
