Merit Coffee, Tifa Chocolate & Gelato, Epic Cycles, Swish Dental and Original ChopShop join Greenside’s growing tenant roster
HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, June 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- MetroNational, a generational real estate investment, development and management firm, and Radom Capital today announced that Greenside, the adaptive-reuse neighborhood destination located in Memorial, has added five new tenants and completed shell construction of the base buildings. Greenside’s retailers and restaurants will soon begin building out their spaces ahead of opening later this year.
The next group of tenants include Merit Coffee, Tifa Chocolate & Gelato, Epic Cycles, Swish Dental and Original ChopShop. Through these additions, Greenside continues to take shape as a thoughtfully planned destination bringing together hospitality, retail, wellness and community-centered gathering spaces.
“Greenside is designed to be a place where people want to gather and enjoy thoughtfully crafted experiences, and we are proud to welcome these new businesses that reflect the spirit of this development,” said Danna Diamond, vice president of leasing at MetroNational. “This milestone is an exciting moment for Greenside as tenants begin building out locations.”
Leading the new wave of tenants is Merit Coffee, which roasts its beans locally and has built a reputation for high-quality coffee, creative beverages and welcoming cafés. The 1,743 square foot location inside Greenside was chosen with the surrounding neighborhood in mind, offering a new place for Merit’s community-drive café experience.
Tifa Chocolate & Gelato, a dessert café offering handcrafted gelato and premium chocolates, will occupy a 1,121 square foot space. Tifa’s gelato is made fresh daily in small batches, with a menu that ranges from classic vanilla bean to adventurous selections such as strawberry balsamic, alongside refreshing fruit sorbets.
Epic Cycles, a premium cycling retailer and service shop, will be relocating from its current CityCentre location to join the tenant mix at Greenside. With a 1,974 square foot space, Epic Cycles is built around passion and trust, offering personalized, data-driven guidance to help find the perfect bike, gear and setup for your goals.
Also new to Greenside is is Swish Dental, which brings modern, patient-centered dental care to the tenant mix through its 3,132 square foot space. Built around elevating the patient experience through a comfort- centric approach, Swish Dental adds a health-focused service to Greenside’s offerings.
Last, in July, Original ChopShop will open within the 10100 office building, part of the Greenside development. The business brings its popular menu of protein bowls, salads, sandwiches, fresh juices and superfruit bowls made with whole ingredients and designed to fuel everyday wellbeing.
“These tenants expand on Greenside’s long-term vision to transform former industrial buildings into a vibrant, community-focused destination,” said Barton Kelly, principal at Radom Capital. “We look forward to sharing additional tenants and community updates in the coming months.”
Located just north of Interstate 10 at 1085 Gessner Road, Greenside transforms 35,000 square feet of former warehouse space into three buildings designed by Michael Hsu Office of Architecture, set around roughly an acre of greenspace and patios. Slated to open in 2026, the walkable, family-friendly development brings together dining, curated retail and wellness concepts with previous announced tenants including Honest Mary’s, Leemoo, Hiatius, [solidcore] and Pizzana alongside established neighborhood favorites such as Kirby Ice House, Mia’s Table and Torchy’s Tacos. Greenside is a connected mixed-use community where office tenants, residents and visitors are close to dining, wellness, outdoor gathering spaces and everyday neighborhood amenities. First tenant openings are anticipated Q4 2026.
