Stadium Commons catch-up

Stadium Commons, the mixed-use development taking shape around Joe Davis Stadium in South Huntsville, gets its newest addition this morning.

The big picture: Free People, a Bohemian-inspired women's clothing boutique, and FP Movement, its activewear brand, open today at 10am.

• Ferren Boutique, a local luxury clothier, is set to open at Stadium Commons April 18, a representative for Stadium Commons told Axios.

Catch up quick: No opening dates have been announced for other tenants in the development's $35.2-million Phase I, including VSL Nail Spa and Juniper's Kitchen, a new restaurant from Power Brands Hospitality.

• Earlier reports said the new stores were set to open by May 2026.
• Those will join Hattie B's Hot Chicken, which opened in December.

What we're watching: A 140-room Hyatt Place hotel is in the works for Stadium Commons as well.

• Phase II details have yet to be announced.
• Under construction just off the Stadium Commons site, adjacent to the stadium, is the 200-room, dual-branded Hilton hotel set to be completed by the end of the year, per an updated agreement between the city and BREG HSV LLC.
