Weekend Recap May 4

New developments are exploding throughout the Metroplex and there is no end in sight! Developers are buying up land everywhere to make space for new retail and office.

“There are about 50 shopping centers that are in some stage of development in McKinney, according to the city’s office of Development Services.

Growth in McKinney has been typical of an outer ring suburb that first focused on residential development before addressing commercial and retail needs, according to Michael Quint, Executive Director of Development Services.”
