Twenty five years ago, Willow Bend opened as the last enclosed mall ever built in Texas. It was late to the party the day it opened, and it spent the next two decades losing anchors one at a time. Macy’s left last year. Dillard’s followed in January. Neiman Marcus is out by next January.

Then in June the Dallas Stars showed up and said this is where we want to play hockey.

The plan now on the table is a roughly $3 billion district on 90 acres at the Tollway and Park Blvd: a city-owned arena, an 18-story hotel, an office tower, retail and restaurants, and close to 1,000 homes. Plano would put in $700 million, paid for with hotel, rental car, parking, and ticket taxes instead of property taxes. Whether that funding happens is up to Plano voters on November 3, and plenty of the neighbors around Willow Bend have shown up to council meetings to say they’re not sold.

For now the building still stands. The restaurant district, the garages, Crate & Barrel and Equinox stay open through all of it. Demolition of the mall interior is set for early 2027 and takes six to eight months, then homes and retail go up first with the arena, hotel and office coming behind them.

It’s a strange arc for a piece of ground. The mall that never quite worked may end up as the most valuable dirt in Collin County.

Proud to welcome White Castle to our development at Grand Prairie Commons! 🏰 🍔

Every new build is a chance to add something real to the community around it. This one brings jobs, sales tax revenue, and a national brand that Texans have been asking to see here for years. It will be only the third White Castle in the state.

Thank you to the City of Grand Prairie for being a genuine partner through this process. Good development happens when the city and the developer are pulling in the same direction.

More to come on this site soon.

Ever notice how the quiet edges of the metroplex are where the big bets land? Red Oak, just south of Dallas, is becoming one of them.

DataBank just closed $1.45 billion in new financing, including an $800 million revolving credit line and a $650 million upsize to its construction loan, to keep building out its 300-acre Red Oak campus and add another 60 megawatts of capacity. That is real money following real demand for the computing power behind everything we do online.

The AI and cloud era has to live somewhere, and more and more, that somewhere is North Texas. Watch the data center belt grow south of Dallas and you get the sense the region’s next chapter is being written in the places most people drive right past.

Where do you think DFW’s next boom town will be?

Haltom City has landed the first Costco Business Center on the west side of Dallas-Fort Worth, coming to 4909 NE Loop 820. To win it, the city approved incentives tied to a retail warehouse of at least 100,000 square feet and a minimum $25 million investment. The store, plus a fuel center, is expected to bring more than 100 jobs and open in early 2027. Unlike a regular warehouse club, a Business Center leans into restaurant-grade supplies and bulk goods aimed at the people who run the area’s shops and kitchens.

It’s a small marker of a bigger shift: retail keeps following rooftops and jobs into Tarrant County, and the west side is increasingly worth building for.

🛒 An empty gym in Irving is now one of the busiest retail centers in DFW.

Metroplex Plaza lost its 24 Hour Fitness anchor in 2020. The space sat empty for five years. In November 2025, Joe V's Smart Shop (H-E-B's value grocery brand) opened in the box.

One quarter later, the center is seeing close to 600,000 visits. Before Joe V's opened, it was under 90,000.

The same thing is happening in other parts of DFW. Ross moved into a vacant anchor at Buckingham Plaza in Garland. EoS Fitness took an empty box at Addison Town Center. Both saw similar jumps in traffic.

DFW retail is 95.3% full, a record high. There isn't much new space being built. So the easiest way to grow traffic at a shopping center right now is to put the right tenant in a box that's already there.

A good anchor still lifts the whole center.
