Fields

Overview:

The Fields project, named after the Bert Fields Jr. family who owned the land for decades, is located in far north Frisco. Positioned along Dallas North Tollway between Preston Road, Teel Parkway and Highway 380, this 2,544-acre site is the largest, contiguous land assemblage in Frisco. With 200 feet of elevation change from its highest point down to Panther Creek, the Fields land has surprising topography for the region. The Fields and Fields West developments are world-class, mixed-use master planned communities. Uses include single-family and multifamily residential, office, retail, education and recreation.

Key Features:

  • High visibility: This property has significant frontage along the Dallas North Tollway, Preston Road, and Highway 380.
  • Mixed-use opportunity: The project is being planned with more than 10,000 homes, about 18 million square feet of commercial space, two golf courses and a resort hotel.
  • Prominent stakeholders: Co-developed and owned in partnership with The Karahan Companies and investors Chief Partners and Cross Tie Capital.
  • Notable Neighbors: The current home and headquarters of the PGA of America, with Fields Ranch at the center of the PGA Frisco campus. Next door is The Omni PGA Frisco Resort with 550 rooms, 30,000’ of meeting space, an exquisite spa, and top-of-the-line restaurants. The University of North Texas at Frisco branch campus opened in 2023, where college degree programs have been retooled for modern business. Universal Kids Resort, the first-of-its-kind theme park concept, is set to open within the Fields development in 2026.
