Dallas Cowboys Development Legacy West with Toyota, Fed Ex, Renaissance Hotel
Dallas Cowboys Development Began Wednesday
Work began Wednesday on the future home of the Dallas Cowboys in Frisco, city officials confirmed. Mass excavation is expected to start the week of July 7. The city, the Cowboys and Frisco ISD have partnered on the development, which will include the team’s headquarters, outdoor practice fields and a 12,000-seat multi-use event center at the northwest corner of Warren Parkway and Dallas North Tollway. The city and the school district have pledged $115 million for the public portion of the 91-acre site. Any costs above that will be paid by the Cowboys’ ownership. About 66 acres at the site will be developed separately by the Blue Land companies owned by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and his family. That acreage will include retail, restaurants, office space and a hotel. The indoor stadium and training facilities are expected to be completed in late summer 2016. The stadium will be used not only for Cowboys training but for high school football games and other events. A ceremonial groundbreaking is planned sometime in August.
