Oaks at Fulshear Office Park Breaks Ground Near FM 1093, Bringing 33,000 SF of New Professional Space to Downtown Fulshear
Fulshear continues to grow—and with that growth comes the need for professional services closer to home. A new 33,000-square-foot office development, The Oaks at Fulshear Junction Office Park, is scheduled to begin construction June 1, 2026, at 8503 Union Chappel Road in Fort Bend County, with completion anticipated by December 1, 2026.
Positioned at the high-traffic convergence of FM 1093, Union Chappel Road, and 1st Street, the $4.2 million new construction project will introduce office condominium space in the heart of the Fulshear Downtown District—a location that sees an estimated 12,000 to 15,000 vehicles per day, according to project materials.
For a city that has become one of the fastest-growing communities in the Houston region, the addition of professional office space is more than a commercial expansion—it represents a shift toward a more self-contained, service-oriented local economy.
Why This Matters for Fulshear Residents
Fulshear’s population growth has been well documented. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Fulshear experienced one of the highest population growth rates in Texas over the past decade, driven by master-planned communities, quality schools, and westward expansion along the FM 1093 corridor.
Rapid residential development creates demand for nearby medical offices, legal services, financial advisors, and other professional businesses. Urban planning research consistently shows that mixed-use and professional service centers reduce drive times, strengthen local tax bases, and create employment opportunities within the community.
For Fulshear residents, that can mean:
- Fewer trips into Katy or Houston for appointments
- More local job opportunities
- Strengthened property values supported by nearby amenities
- A more complete and convenient downtown district
The Texas Demographic Center notes that Fort Bend County continues to rank among the fastest-growing counties in Texas, reflecting sustained economic and residential momentum. Projects like The Oaks at Fulshear Junction help balance that residential growth with commercial infrastructure.

A Closer Look at the Development
The Oaks at Fulshear Junction will feature office condo units ranging from 1,320 square feet to 5,280 square feet, designed for professional users such as medical, legal, financial, and other service-based businesses.
Standard floor plans include:
- Three private offices
- A 14-foot ceiling conference room
- Reception area
- Flex/copy room
- Private ADA restroom
- Break area with refrigerator
Some units will feature storefront elevations, separate rear entrances, and street parking options, reinforcing visibility and accessibility along FM 1093—one of Fulshear’s primary commercial corridors.
The site layout shows multiple building clusters with internal parking circulation off Union Chappel Road and First Street, supporting convenient access for clients and staff alike. The development is located near shopping, dining, and entertainment within the Fulshear Town Center area, contributing to the walkable, service-rich environment that downtown districts aim to cultivate.
Supporting Fulshear’s Downtown Identity
Over the past several years, Fulshear’s Downtown District has evolved from a quiet crossroads into a growing commercial node anchored by restaurants, retail, and community gathering spaces. The Oaks at Fulshear project builds on that identity—not by introducing large-scale retail, but by filling an important gap in professional office supply.
Commercial office space is often an indicator of economic maturity in growing cities. Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas shows that suburban office development typically follows sustained residential demand and signals confidence in long-term population stability.
For homeowners, that kind of balanced development can support municipal revenue without relying solely on residential property taxes. For small business owners, it offers the opportunity to operate closer to the families they serve.

What Happens Next
Construction is expected to begin June 1, 2026, with completion projected for December 1, 2026. As site work begins at 8503 Union Chappel Road, residents can expect visible progress near FM 1093 and 1st Street.
While The Oaks at Fulshear Junction is a commercial development, its impact extends beyond business owners. Projects like this shape how a community functions day-to-day—where residents work, where they meet with service providers, and how often they need to leave town for essential services.
As Fulshear continues to grow, developments that support both economic opportunity and convenience will likely remain part of the city’s evolving landscape.
