HOUSTON — CBRE has arranged the sale of Macy’s at West Oaks Mall, a 243,337-square-foot retail property situated on 18 acres at the corner of Westheimer Boulevard and State Highway 6 in Houston. 1st Emporium Inc., the retail division of digital investment firm Mehta Investments, purchased the two-building asset from Macy’s Holdings for an undisclosed price. The buyer, which also purchased the remainder of the mall in 2017, plans to redevelop the space into a department store that will be branded The Outlet at West Oaks. That store, which will specialize within clothing and home goods, is expected to open in the next six months. The first committed retailer to join The Outlet at West Oaks will be Formal Gallery, a formal dress shop. Brian Ashby and Sydney Dixon of CBRE represented Macy’s Holdings in the transaction.
