Estimated: NBC 7 reported demolition already under way on June 17, 2020, and Wikipedia^[3] says renovations began in June 2020; the exact first day of work is unpublished, so the first dated report is used.
Stockdale Capital Partners bought Horton Plaza for $175 million in 2018 and began demolition in June 2020 to turn the 1985 mall into the Campus at Horton, with 700,000 square feet of office space and 300,000 square feet of retail. Building A topped out in April 2021 with completion expected in 2022, but the project missed that date and went into foreclosure in 2025. AllianceBernstein now owns the site and no new delivery date is published.
