Solms Landing’s $5.17 Million Retail Plan Enters City Review

The Aug. 18 application gives nearby residents a city permit number to follow as the two-building proposal awaits review.

New Braunfels received commercial new-build application CP2026-716 on Aug. 18 for Solms Landing Retail Phase 2, Buildings 1 and 2.

People who live or travel near Sophie Lane can now track the $5.165 million, two-building proposal through New Braunfels application CP2026-716.

The city entry places the commercial new-build proposal at 2257 Sophie Lane. Its submitted status creates a public checkpoint for residents watching development in the area, but it is not an issued permit and does not establish that construction has started.

The application follows Texas architectural-barriers registration TABS2026026920, filed Aug. 4. That record lists new construction, a $5,165,040 estimated cost and an estimated construction window from Sept. 30, 2026, through June 3, 2027. Those dates are applicant estimates, not verified construction milestones.

The Aug. 18 city application is the material change since Comal.News reported the state registration. It brings the same two-building project into the local permit system, where a later issued, revised, withdrawn or closed status would document the next step.

Neither the city entry nor the state registration identifies a tenant or specific store. Establishing who would occupy the buildings requires a revised filing, an occupancy application or an attributable response from the project representative.
