"Back in August, speculation abounded on the Houston Architectural Info Forums as to where Van Leeuwen, the cult-fave ice cream shop from New York City, might choose for its first Houston location. Based on paperwork filed with the State of Texas, many guessed that “Van Leeuwen Houston Montrose” would be going into the currently-under-construction multiuse development Montrose Collective, at the intersection of Westheimer and Grant streets. Now that rumor has been confirmed. A press release from developers Radom Capital announces that “Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, will be bringing some sweetness” to the nearly-completed development. When it opens, Van Leeuwen will join existing businesses Uchi and Southside Espresso, as well as new tenants like Live Nation in the new complex. Van Leeuwan also has several other locations in the works for Houston, including in Rice Village and Uptown Park." - Brittanie Shey
