Headwall Investments Secures Tower at Boerne in Boerne, TX, Achieving 18th Shopping Center Acquisition
SAN ANTONIO, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Headwall Investments, a prominent Texas-based commercial real estate investment and development firm specializing in unanchored neighborhood shopping centers in high-growth Texas markets and urban infill development in San Antonio, announces the acquisition of Tower at Boerne, a premier unanchored shopping center in the San Antonio MSA, on April 24, 2025. This transaction marks the firm's 18th shopping center acquisition, expanding its portfolio to 610,000 square feet across the Austin-San Antonio, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Houston MSAs. Tower at Boerne, a fully leased neighborhood shopping center, boasts exceptional visibility along high-traffic corridors, seamless accessibility for customers, and a surrounding market characterized by strong household incomes and robust vehicle per day counts. These attributes align perfectly with Headwall's strategic focus on acquiring assets that drive consistent foot traffic and long-term value. The center's prime location in the rapidly growing Boerne community positions it as a cornerstone of the firm's portfolio, catering to the area's affluent and expanding population. The unanchored shopping center features a dynamic mix of local and regional businesses serving the fast-growing Boerne community, and bolsters Headwall's portfolio, now encompassing 186 tenant spaces with a diverse array of food and service tenants, including Papa Johns, Jersey Mike's, SuperCuts, Juiceland, Buffalo Wild Wings, HotWorx, Firehouse Subs, AT&T, Salata Salad Kitchen, Red Wing Shoes, T-Mobile, O'Reilly Auto Parts, Wingstop, Via 313 Pizzeria, and Dogtopia. This diversity reinforces Headwall's commitment to fostering thriving community hubs across Texas. "The unanchored shopping center subsector of commercial real estate has undergone a remarkable evolution since I began acquiring assets in this space in 2007," said George J. Wommack, Founder & CEO of Headwall Investments. "Beyond the significant supply constraints impacting these properties in recent years, the most notable shift has been the surge in institutional interest. What was once a market dominated by smaller, individual owners has transformed into a sought-after asset class for institutional investors, drawn by robust fundamentals and the opportunity to scale in a previously overlooked corner of commercial real estate. We are honored to have been early pioneers in this sector and remain committed to acquiring top-tier assets in Texas' major metropolitan markets."

Matthew Smith focused on Everest slot with improving sprinter Headwall
Don't miss out on the headlines from Horse Racing. Followed categories will be added to My News. Trainer Matthew Smith is prepared to bypass the feature Brisbane sprints to give Headwall every chance to qualify for the $20m The TAB Everest later this year. Headwall has emerged as a genuine Everest contender despite a winless, albeit luckless, autumn campaign. He has taken on the best sprinters in training in four successive starts and could easily have won at least two Group 1 races. • PUNT LIKE A PRO: Become a Racenet iQ member and get expert tips – with fully transparent return on investment statistics – from Racenet's team of professional punters at our Pro Tips section. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Headwall was hopelessly held up in the straight before finishing fourth to Jimmysstar in the Oakleigh Plate then he ran a close second to Joliestar in the Newmarket Handicap. Smith's underrated sprinter again had an interrupted run before his third to Briasa in the TJ Smith Stakes then he was beaten narrowly by Jokers Grin in The Quokka last Saturday. Headwall is on the way back from Perth via a stopover in Melbourne on Thursday but Smith said he wants to check on the five-year-old's condition when he is back at the trainer's Warwick Farm stables before confirming plans for the gelding. 'I reckon Headwall will have a break now,'' Smith said. 'He's done a bit of travelling with a couple of trips away and there is Brisbane to consider. 'But I think when all said and done he should go for a break and then we can target The Everest in the spring.'' Improving sprinter Headwall had a luckless autumn campaign. Picture:Despite Headwall's consistent big-race form this autumn, Smith hasn't fielded any approaches from slot-holders and TAB has the sprinter at $34 in early Everest betting behind Hong Kong superstar Ka Ying Rising at $2. Some of Headwall's adversaries this autumn, Briasa ($8), Jimmysstar ($11) and Joliestar ($11) are among the early favourites for The Everest. • Smith's 'unbelievable' win on game-changing day for NSW racing 'We haven't had any contact from slot-holders yet but the plan is to get him to The Everest,'' Smith said. 'So, by giving Headwall a break now, we can have him ready to go early in the spring. 'If he can win one of those early lead-up races to The Everest like the Concorde Stakes then surely he would get a start.'' Unbeaten Private Harry ($6) remains the only confirmed starter for The Everest after racing and breeding giant Yulong – which owns a slot in the world's richest turf race – secured a half-share in the sprinter after his win in the Group 1 The Galaxy during the Sydney autumn carnival.
