A New Dick’s is Coming to Bexar County: This is the Site

The highly anticipated Dick’s House of Sport in Live Oak, Texas, is still under construction as of February 2025. Originally announced in mid-2024, this massive sporting goods store is expected to bring an interactive shopping experience to the growing retail hub north of San Antonio. However, recent site developments suggest that completion is still months away.

What’s the Current Status?

Recent images from late 2024 show significant progress, with foundational structures and early framework in place. Two large concrete pillars are visible at the site, likely forming part of the building’s main support structure. According to construction filings, the project is still on track for an August 2025 completion date.

What to Expect at Dick’s House of Sport

Unlike traditional Dick’s Sporting Goods stores, the House of Sport concept offers more than just retail shopping. This location will feature interactive elements such as:

  • A climbing wall for in-store experiences.
  • Turf fields for testing equipment and hosting sports clinics.
  • Batting cages for baseball and softball practice.
  • Community events and athlete meet-and-greets.

Location and Development Background

The new Dick’s House of Sport is being built in The Forum at Olympia Parkway shopping center, a well-established retail district with stores like Target, Best Buy, and Old Navy. This addition marks another expansion phase in Live Oak, an area that has seen rapid commercial growth in recent years.

When Will It Open?

Based on available construction reports, the store is projected to open by late summer or early fall 2025. However, unexpected delays could push that timeline back. Shoppers and sports enthusiasts should stay tuned for official announcements as the project progresses.
