Our Story

Built in 1912 as the Bryan Ice Company, Ice House on Main has been a cornerstone of the community, evolving from an ice processing hub to a Coca-Cola distributor, furniture manufacturer, and nightclub, Cell Block Five.

Today, this Mission Revival style event space in Bryan’s historic district boasts original wood floors, exposed brick, and beams, offering versatile event and wedding spaces. Led by Advent GX, our community-driven redevelopment anchors the North end of Downtown Bryan’s Cultural and Heritage District, blending heritage preservation with innovation to enhance quality of life and spark economic growth.

Redevelopment History

With South-end redevelopment well underway, Ice House on Main promises to provide an anchor for North end activity in Downtown Bryan’s Cultural and Heritage District where the redevelopment project has already served as a catalyst for further downtown development.

At Advent GX, we are honored to be leading the redevelopment of this important piece of our downtown history. This is a community development project, meaning it is developed by and for our community to enhance quality of life and spur economic growth. As with past projects, we are using innovation and entrepreneurship to support heritage preservation and inviting the community to share in the experience.

Already, we have received great support from the City of Bryan and the community. Some friends have contributed their ideas, others have lent their expertise to market research and planning, and others have invested in the project through our community development fund.

We invite you to explore this site, share your ideas and feedback, and contact us if you’d like to learn more, book an event, or join in the effort as an investor.
