McKinney is getting a giant $334 million music venue featuring Las Vegas Sphere-style screens.

They're building it right near the intersection of US-75 and Highway 121. It's already 70% complete and will hold up to 20,000 people.

But they aren't building a giant ball. Instead, floor-to-ceiling LED screens wrap around the stage, letting them put a virtual, digital performer right next to a live band.

But the screens aren't even the most interesting part.

They can shrink the seating to fit smaller crowds of 5,000, and they're adding wind-walls and heaters to run up to 100 shows year-round.

That extra tech is why the price tag jumped by over $100 million from their original plans.

They're also partnering with Cowboys legend Troy Aikman on a private club right in the center of the seats, and most of their million-dollar luxury suites are already sold out.

Builders are aiming for a temporary permit by April 1, 2027, with public shows starting later that year.

North Dallas is getting a brand-new luxury neighborhood with only 37 private homes — complete with its own pickleball courts and paved walking trails.

In 2019, a tornado destroyed a church on this exact spot. It's sat empty for years, but a developer just got approval to build 37 detached homes here, with prices expected to start around $900,000.

Follow me and comment "home" and I'll send you all the details.

Inside, you get a freestanding house with zero yard work, and you're only 5 minutes from Preston Hollow. You can walk out your door straight to the 2 built-in pickleball courts.

With only 37 lots total, they're going to go fast. Since construction hasn't even started yet, this is your chance to get in early.

McKinney is getting its first-ever commercial flights this November out of a brand new $79 million terminal.

The federal government just gave the existing airport its commercial operating license, making this the first time a Texas airport has been approved for passenger flights since 2005.

But with DFW Airport and Love Field already so close, why does Collin County need its own commercial runway?

The terminal is only about the size of a local grocery store. It's designed to completely skip the DFW slog. You'll park for $15 a day, walk through just 4 gates, and board directly from the ground.

So where can you actually fly?

An airline called Avelo is running the flights. On November 11th, they launch with a flight to Fort Myers, Florida. Las Vegas and Orlando start the next day, and they'll reach 9 nonstop destinations by mid-December, including Denver, Atlanta, and Nashville.

Dallas is opening a brand-new $10 million plaza right on the Katy Trail.

It's at North Houston Street and Victory Avenue, where a massive retaining wall used to create an awkward, steep drop-off.

So what did they actually build to fix it?

They dug out the wall to build a tiered trail "mixmaster." It features an elevated bridge over a lower gathering plaza, connected by a ramp.

You'll see curving, weathered-steel gateway sculptures and custom railings inspired by the natural trail cliffs and the Perot Museum.

But the real reason this matters is what it connects.

It seamlessly joins 3 major trails, smoothing out the transition from Uptown into the Design District.

It's also the front porch to a larger project joining 39 miles of existing Dallas trails with 11 miles of new ones.

The plaza was supposed to open by the end of September, but its public opening hasn't been officially confirmed yet. Either way, a grand opening celebration is planned for October 20th.

Uptown Dallas is getting a giant $650 million luxury tower with five-star hotel services and direct access to the Katy Trail.

Developers tore down the old TV station on Harwood Street that stood there for 65 years to build this 29-story tower. The bottom is a five-star hotel, but the top has only 60 private condos starting at $1.5 million. The penthouse is privately listed for $21 million—making it the most expensive condo in the city. You get 24-hour valet, security, and full hotel services with only 60 homes in the entire building.

Follow me and comment "home" and I'll send you all the details.

Imagine stepping directly onto the Katy Trail from your lobby, then coming back to a private spa with a cold plunge, saunas, and steam rooms. You can even order a massage right to your living room.

They've already started construction, and with only 60 homes total, these spots won't last.

Southlake is about to get a huge $120 million development anchored by its first-ever Whole Foods.

The 40 acre site sits along State Highway 114 and White Chapel Boulevard, right across from Carillon Parc.

The grocery store itself will span 35,500 square feet, making it the only major grocer north of the highway within a 3-mile radius.

But the Whole Foods is just the anchor.

It's part of a walkable, farmhouse-inspired district called Shivers Farm.

Approved plans call for 111,000 square feet of shops, a 3-story office building, and 37 single-family homes.

Plans also include golf-cart parking and a 3-acre pad for a future hotel.

The entire layout is designed to honor the land's history.

The Shivers family farmed here starting in the early 1900s.

Designers planned a nearly 1-acre park at the center to preserve the property's heritage oak trees, with restaurants and outdoor seating clustered around them.

So when does it open?

They plan to break ground in September 2026, with an opening targeted for the second half of 2028.

The Dallas Mavericks just launched plans for a giant multibillion-dollar arena district.

But they aren’t proposing to build it downtown. Instead, they've filed to rezone 112 acres at the old Valley View Mall site off 635. They haven't bought the land yet, but they've secured purchase options on 104 acres of it.

While they love the site's easy highway access, there's another huge motivator. The Mavericks don't own the area around their current arena, meaning they miss out on most of the revenue spent at nearby hotels and restaurants on game nights.

By securing this land, they're aiming to build and control their own district. Their proposed plan includes a high-end hotel, team headquarters, and a separate 4,000 to 5,000-seat concert venue.

So what happens to the American Airlines Center?

The Mavs will continue playing downtown through 2031. But with the Dallas Stars also pursuing a new arena in Plano, the current stadium could eventually lose both of its main teams.
