Davis Street in Conroe (Conroe, Texas)

As we continue to process through Carbon-izer.com's legacy entries, let me introduce Highway 105 to you, once a beloved fixture of Christmas vacation trips as my family passed through it. Based on the Montgomery Co. page on Carbon-izer.com, there's a few items of interest to share. Unlike the Carbon-izer page, it lacks the Home Depot Distribution Center at Porter Road as it has already been covered. It also does not mention the Shell/McDonald's in Lake Conroe (that's for a separate entry). This version does add a few new entries not on Carbon-izer, though...

Wake Church / 3830 West Davis Street
Albertsons (original number unknown but re-numbered as #2734 in the late 1990s) opened here in fall 1996 and was purchased and rebranded as Kroger in spring 2002 when the chain pulled out of the Houston area. The classic Kroger logo disappeared in favor of block lettering a few years later. It closed in 2017 due to a new Kroger Marketplace in Montgomery, probably likely because Kroger already had a Signature store just over a mile away. The space was purchased, renovated, and reopened as Wake Church in 2022. When this space was a supermarket, it also had a gas station in the parking lot that was later demolished.

1306 West Davis Street
Originally a Randalls supermarket (lasting just three years, roughly from fall 2002 to fall 2005), this later became Hastings, a chain store specializing in music, movies, books, and games. At some point, Gold's Gym moved into the unused space that Hastings didn't use, and after Hastings closed in fall 2016, Gold's Gym continued to stay here. Current tenants include Party City (as of this writing soon to close because of the chain's bankruptcy), 2nd & Charles, and Fitness Project.

Tierra Cuscatleca / 402 East Davis Street
This was Tinsley's from 1968 to 1985, Church's 1985 to 1997, and "Taco Loco" 2001-2002. In the late 2000s and early 2010s it was Taqueria & Panaderia San Luis, then Taqueria La Mision, then starting around 2020 Tierra Cuscatleca.
