Oaks Development Group Closes on Second San Antonio Project
June 27, 2008

North Carolina-based Oaks Development Group closed on 7.9 acres in Westover Hills, San Antonio, Tex. The site, located on the south east corner of 151 and Westover Hills Boulevard, will be home to a 95,000-square-foot class A medical office building. The land is part of a mixed-use development by Great American Co. that will include a Staybridge hotel, planned restaurant and retail. This is Oaks' second San Antonio project and is expected to open early to mid 2009. Committed tenant owners already include Alamo Medical Group and Urology San Antonio, with a planned magnetic resonance imaging facility on the first floor. Oaks' first San Antonio project in the Medical Center will include an ambulatory surgical center, the developer also said today. That facility is a planned 105,000-square-foot, class A medical office building located at the corner of Floyd Curl and Hamilton Wolfe.
