Developer’s New Development Dream

The article continues, “Developers unveiled the plans and name of the $3 billion project on Nov, 30. The first phase of The Mix, which will be located at Dallas Parkway and Lebanon Road in the area described as the North Platinum Corridor in Frisco, will break ground in December, according to a news release. The project will encompass 28 of the northernmost acres along Lebanon Road and is slated for completion in 2026. “Our vision for The Mix is to create a community that embraces the diversity of Frisco,” Tim Campbell, head of The Mix development, said in the release. “At The Mix, you’ll enjoy and interact with a mosaic of thoughtful architecture and vibrant green open space. We want every view to be a beautiful one.”

Famous Park Roots

A familiar name will help with the design. The article adds, “The park will be designed by OJB, the landscape firm behind Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, and will feature an event lawn, a performance pavilion, playgrounds, promenades and a pond, Campbell said. Overall The Mix will have a total of 20 acres of green open space to create a walkable community, he said. Frisco Mayor Jeff Cheney said the revised property plans improved upon the original vision, specifically with the central park that falls in line with the city’s development standards. “Wade Park is certainly one of the developments [where] we get the most questions asked from our community,” Cheney said. “There were big aspirations for that piece of property and a big vision kind of sold to the public.”

World Class Mixed-Experience

There will certainly be something for everyone. The article continues, “Once completed, Cheney expects the development will be world-class among mixed-experience communities. “We’re certainly excited as city leaders to see that project moving forward,” Cheney said. The Mix is planned to have approximately 2 million square feet of office space; 375,000 square feet of retail, including a grocery store; a business hotel and a boutique hotel; and 3 million square feet of residential, according to the release. StreetLights Residential, a Dallas-based, design-focused multifamily and mixed-use developer, is partnering on the residential aspect of the project.”

Public/Private Partnership

The article continues, “One of our Council’s ‘Top Ten Priorities’ is to make historic downtown an entertainment destination. This public-private partnership will be monumental in redeveloping historic downtown Frisco,” said Mayor Jeff Cheney. “We’re confident it will be a high-energy, gathering place for residents and visitors, alike. In fact, our VisitFrisco team shares’ breweries’ and ‘live music venues’ are two of the reasons why residents leave Frisco for other entertainment destinations. Rollertown Beerworks will be designed to have both.” 

New Prospects

The new agreement is quite large. According to the report, “Under the proposed agreement, the Frisco Rollertown Beerworks will span at least 24,000 square feet and include production operations, as well as a restaurant, event lawn with artificial turf, a stage/pavilion and a two-level tap and tasting room with a rooftop experience and beer garden. Company executives estimate ‘Rollertown’ will attract more than 250,000 visitors to Frisco each year…In the proposed contract, the FCDC would invest up to $10 million to construct the facilities to accommodate brewery production, distribution, and sales activities; the FEDC would contribute an additional $2 million grant towards construction…The proposal requires Rollertown Beerworks to cover any costs exceeding the city’s maximum $12 million total investment for design and construction. The company would also be responsible for all management and operation costs. The brewery is expected to employ at least 36 employees, including full and part-time staff. 

Brews & Good Times

The article concludes, “We are thrilled to partner with the City of Frisco to bring a world-class brewery and entertainment facility to the downtown area,” said Jonathan Rogers, CEO of Rollertown. “Along with being one of the finest places to live in the country, Frisco is one of the most creative, forward-looking communities in the U.S. We look forward to being an excellent partner for the City of Frisco and an excellent teammate for her partners, institutions, and residents’…If approved, the public-private partnership would involve a 23-year lease agreement with an option to extend the lease to 40-years. Under the proposed agreement, Rollertown Beerworks would repay $10 million at 4% interest within 23-years. After the second year of operation, the repayment provision for the $2 million grant would be forgiven. The City of Frisco will retain ownership of the property and facilities. If approved by all parties, construction is expected to start within a year. An opening date for Rollertown Beerworks in Frisco is anticipated in late 2024.”
