Multiple projects across retail, hospitality, and housing continue to move forward in Monte Vista

Cobblestone Hotel Exterior Taking Shape

 

New progress is visible at the Cobblestone Hotel site, where exterior façade work is now underway. Recent photos show scaffolding in place along the building, along with stone veneer installation and exterior finishing work. With the structure fully enclosed and exterior detailing in progress, the project appears to be entering its final construction phase. Interior buildout is likely continuing simultaneously, keeping the project on track for a potential summer opening.

Dollar General Nearing Exterior Completion

 

Significant progress has been made on the new Dollar General store. The building is now largely enclosed, with exterior metal panels installed and the main entrance doors in place. Crews appear to be finishing exterior details while preparing for interior buildout. Site work, including sidewalks and parking areas, is still underway. From this stage, projects of this type often move quickly toward completion, suggesting an opening could be just weeks away.

AutoZone Construction Moves Into Vertical Phase

 

Construction at the future AutoZone site has advanced beyond initial groundwork, with vertical construction now underway. Recent images show masonry walls going up along with scaffolding, indicating the start of the building structure. This marks a major milestone as the project transitions from site preparation to full building construction. Continued progress over the coming weeks should make the final layout of the store more visible.
