Hixon and the Cavender family own more than eight acres of land spanning the bulk of four blocks along Broadway, according to the Bexar Appraisal District. That stretch of Broadway was once a hub for local auto dealerships, and the Cavenders have had a presence there for more than 70 years. The last dealership in the area — Cavender Cadillac at 801 Broadway — left for the far Northeast Side in 2013.

THE SOTO

Hixon Properties is partnering with the Cavender family on the six-story, 140,000-square-foot mixed-use building as The Soto. Located at Broadway and 8th Street, The Soto occupies the former site of a plasma lab and the Cavender Cadillac dealership and showroom, which opened there in 1939 during the area’s heyday and closed in 2014.

The Soto will be the first mass-timber mid-rise building in the state of Texas. About 130,000 square feet of the property will be developed for office space while the remaining 10,000 square feet is planned for ground-level retail. The building also will feature a sub-level parking garage. The Soto offers high-end office space with wood columns and ceilings and tall windows offering panoramic views of the downtown skyline.

Now that Hixon-Cavender has finished construction of the Soto office building, the local partnership looks to the next phase of the mini-neighborhood it is developing on a key stretch of Broadway linking downtown and the Pearl. Next up is a food-and-beverage market that will occupy two historic buildings behind the Soto and will include a courtyard for outdoor seating.
