The Greenspoint Mall • Permanently Closed as of 2024

Greenspoint Mall is permanently closed. It shut its doors on 30 July 2024 after 48 years, and the property owner has announced plans to demolish the building (FOX 26 Houston). If you are looking for somewhere to shop in north Houston, skip to the alternatives further down — the mall itself is no longer a shopping destination.

What happened to Greenspoint Mall

The mall opened in 1976 at the north-east corner of I-45 and Beltway 8, and for two decades it was the shopping center for north Houston. Over time, anchor stores left and the mall lost shoppers. Plans for its future changed several times before the 2024 closure.

What is being built on the site

The site is not becoming another mall. Lincoln Property Company, with New York Life Investment Management, is converting roughly 80 acres into CityNorth Industrial Park — a $150 million, 1.2 million square foot warehouse and logistics development at 12300 North Freeway.

Demolition of the mall building is due to begin in October 2026, with the first phase of the industrial park expected to complete in Q1 2028 (Lincoln Property Company announcement).

Where to shop instead in north Houston

Greenspoint sat between two malls that are both still trading and both a reasonable drive from the old site:

Willowbrook Mall — north-west, off SH 249. The bigger of the two, with the wider fashion line-up and a full store directory.
Deerbrook Mall — north-east, in Humble off US 59. Closer if you are coming from the Intercontinental Airport side.
The Woodlands Mall — further north up I-45, and the strongest option of the three if you want anchors like Nordstrom and Dillard’s plus a full dining line-up.

For outlet pricing rather than mall brands, Houston Premium Outlets in Cypress is the nearest of the two big outlet centres.

A note for people searching for Greenspoint hours

There are none — the mall is closed and has been since 2024. Listings that still show opening hours for Greenspoint Mall are out of date. If you were heading there for a specific store, check our directories for Willowbrook or The Woodlands to see whether that brand has a nearby location.
