The Cresson

Two southwest Fort Worth retail projects are at different stages this fall: Target’s Chisholm Trail store is serving shoppers, while H-E-B has announced a future location at Chisholm Trail Parkway and Oakmont Boulevard. For Cresson readers following nearby development, the distinction is between a business available today and an investment whose opening remains ahead.

Target is operating

Target’s current store directory lists the Fort Worth Chisholm Trail location at 5900 Retail Way, with operating hours and pickup services. The company’s September 2 fact sheet set October 11 as its official opening date. The October 11 date is the company’s announced opening milestone; the current directory supports operating status.

The approximately 148,000-square-foot store includes a pharmacy, café and optical department, according to Target. The company’s new-store careers page still lists the location as hiring. Applicants should use the company’s own job listings to check individual roles and availability, rather than assume that every opening is still unfilled.

H-E-B is planned

H-E-B’s October 2 announcement describes a purchase of more than 20 acres at the northeast corner of Chisholm Trail Parkway and Oakmont. The site is within Overland, a 250-acre Edwards Ranch community being developed by Cassco. The grocer says construction is planned to begin in early 2027, with an opening expected in late 2028.

Those dates are the company’s expectations. H-E-B says store plans are still being developed and further details will be released as the project advances. The announcement therefore belongs on a regional development watch, with a planned status, while Target can be listed as an operating destination.

What it means for Cresson

For Cresson households that already shop or work in southwest Fort Worth, the practical significance may be an additional retail option now and another grocery option later. The available sources do not quantify how many Cresson residents will use either location.

Neither store is being announced for Cresson itself. These are Fort Worth projects, and their progress cannot substitute for a count of homes, residents or new businesses inside Cresson’s city limits. Regional retail investment is one piece of the surrounding growth picture, with its own geography and timetable.

What to watch next

The next useful H-E-B milestones will be the company’s further plans, a confirmed construction start and later an opening update. Readers can follow those changes alongside the current Target directory and job listings, keeping today’s services separate from future construction schedules.
