Habicons has been officially selected by the Milano Nail Spa system to serve as the general contractor for its upcoming project at Texas Heritage Marketplace, one of the most significant new mixed-use developments in the Katy–Fulshear growth corridor.
Milano Nail Spa at Texas Heritage Marketplace
This project marks another important milestone in the working relationship between Habicons and the Milano Nail Spa system. It also reflects Habicons’ growing role in commercial build-out projects that require strong design coordination, permitting knowledge, construction management, and reliable project delivery.
The new Milano Nail Spa project will encompass a floor area of over 7,000 square feet. According to the current plan, in addition to the main floor area, the facility will include a 1,000-square-foot mezzanine level. The salon is designed to feature 66 pedicure chairs, 4 shampoo-massage tables, and 30 manicure stations. The entire facility will be outfitted with high-end amenities and finishes—befitting the renowned, upscale nail and spa system that Milano represents.
We feel extremely confident in handing over this project—as well as many others—to Habicons to serve as our general contractor. Although they only began working with us in 2024, Habicons has already executed numerous projects for us with exceptional quality. As a general contractor with strong capabilities in both design and construction permitting, they have implemented our projects with a high level of commitment and responsibility, consistently completing them ahead of schedule. It could be said that they truly understand what we want—and they deliver even more than that.”
Upon entrusting the project to Habicons, Mr. Thai Tran, CEO of Milano Nail Spa shared:
Nails of America and Milano Nail Spa are two respected brands founded through the vision and commitment of Mr. Thai Tran. According to the NoA and Milano Nail Spa website, the brands have grown from nearly three decades of industry experience, with a focus on elegance, professionalism, customer care, hygiene, and premium salon environments. The system also notes that Nails of America was developed in prime, accessible locations, while Milano Nail Spa was created to further expand the brand’s upscale presence in high-demand areas.

Situated in a prime location within Texas Heritage Marketplace, the Milano Nail Spa project promises to introduce an exceptional new service offering to the entire shopping complex. Its size, design, and premium customer experience will make it an important lifestyle destination for residents, shoppers, and visitors in the area.
The project’s technical design phase has now been completed. The team is currently awaiting site handover to commence construction, with groundbreaking scheduled for this coming autumn. Once the space is turned over, Habicons will begin managing the construction process, including build-out coordination, MEP systems, interior finishes, equipment installation, inspections, and final turnover.
Texas Heritage Marketplace
Texas Heritage Marketplace is located at the southeast corner of I-10 and Texas Heritage Parkway in Katy, Texas. NewQuest lists the development as a retail, land, multifamily, medical, and mixed-use project, with spaces ranging from 1,000 to 22,000 square feet. Public reporting describes the overall project as a 165-acre, $400 million mixed-use development that will include approximately 750,000 square feet of retail space, 300,000 square feet for medical offices and self-storage, and 550 apartment units.

The shopping center is expected to bring major retail, dining, service, and lifestyle options to the growing Katy–Fulshear area. With anchors and businesses such as Target, Lowe’s, Sam’s Club, restaurants, fitness, and service-based tenants, Texas Heritage Marketplace is being developed as more than a shopping center—it is positioned as a community destination.
For local residents, the project will provide more convenience, new employment opportunities, new gathering spaces, and stronger commercial services close to home. For business owners, it represents the continued growth of the west Houston market and the strong demand for high-quality commercial spaces.
Habicons is proud to support this development through the Milano Nail Spa project and looks forward to helping bring this premium salon experience to life.
