SCHEELS Breaks Ground at Grandscape Development


Grandscape, a development project owned by LMG Ventures, has announced the start of construction on SCHEELS, a sports retailer and entertainment destination. Ground was broken on Thursday, February 8, 2018, at the Grandscape Development site in The Colony, Texas. With 27 stores in 12 states, this will be SCHEELS’ first location in Texas, and at 331,000 square feet, will also be the largest All Sports Store in the world when it opens in 2020. Made up of various entertainment venues, specialty shops and boutiques, The Colony SCHEELS will include 85 specialty shops, an arcade, restaurants and cafes, a 65-foot Ferris Wheel, a wildlife mountain, and a 16,000-gallon aquarium.

SCHEELS will be the Grandscape Development’s second supersized store, with Nebraska Furniture Mart serving as the center of the development. Construction began on Nebraska Furniture Mart in 2012, and when completed the entirety of Grandscape will stretch across 430+ acres, 3.9 million square feet of retail, entertainment, dining, and attractions.
