About

Market Street Woodlands is a picturesque, open-air shopping center in North Houston, owned by Miller Capital Advisory, a privately held firm managing $8 billion in fashion-focused retail projects. When Miller Capital acquired the property, their thesis was clear: as Houston’s No. 4 MSA continued to grow and the drive time between The Woodlands and the inner loop stretched longer, the area would emerge as an upscale, two-story shopping destination. That bet has only strengthened with time.

A Commitment to Luxury

Fervent in that thesis, Miller Capital Advisory hired Soozan Baxter Consulting in January 2012 to bring contemporary and luxury brands to the market. Over more than 14 years at the center, Soozan Baxter has become a trusted strategic advisor to ownership, working closely on merchandising, legal, design, and marketing standards. She has driven rent growth, landlord-favorable lease terms, and sales per square foot, and more importantly, she has procured deals with Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Tiffany, Golden Goose, Hugo Boss, LoveShackFancy, Le Labo, David Yurman, Jo Malone, Breitling, Omega, Rhone, Pink Chicken, Oliver Peoples, and many other venerable brands.

Today Market Street Woodlands isn’t just another center in the Houston market. It is a power player for top brand performances and the definitive place for a retailer to open a location when it wants to make a statement.
