McKinney, Texas — De La Vega Capital and Development has unveiled plans for West Grove, a 600,000-square-foot mixed-use project being developed through a public-private partnership with the City of McKinney, located roughly 32 miles north of Dallas.
Positioned at the southeast corner of U.S. Highway 380 and Custer Road, the 53-acre open-air development will include a mix of retail, restaurants and entertainment space anchored by Whole Foods Market; a 420-unit luxury residential complex; 55,000 square feet of office space; and a two-acre park.
San Francisco-based architectural firm Gensler designed the project to promote outdoor gathering with open air paseos, outdoor decks, an experiential indoor/outdoor restaurant and entertainment space, and a central lawn that will feature live music, family movie nights and fitness classes year-round.
“West Grove will be designed to bring people and a growing city together,” says Artemio De La Vega, president and CEO of De La Vega Capital. “A central green space and a mix of open-air, experience-driven retail and restaurant spaces will cultivate a sense of community, where visitors can connect meaningfully with each other and their natural environment.”
A groundbreaking for the project is scheduled to take place during 2022.
Dallas-based De La Vega Capital and Development is a real estate investment and development firm focused on ground-up mixed-use and retail projects in the United States. The company has a portfolio of over 5 million square feet of projects in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
