The developers who brought Toyota's North American headquarters to Legacy West are teaming up again, this time to sell corporate America on north Frisco.
Fehmi Karahan and the Dallas firm KDC plan to develop up to 11 million square feet of custom office space inside Fields, the 2,545-acre development along the Dallas North Tollway, the partners told The Dallas Morning News this week. Companies could choose anything from a midrise campus to a high-rise tower, the developers said.
"This is getting the band back together," KDC president Eric Hage told the News. "We think Fields is the next frontier."
Room for a big campus
The partners have nearly 700 acres to offer, according to the News, much of it along the tollway frontage road and zoned for any office use. Local Profile reported that office sites are spread along four corridors: the Dallas North Tollway, Panther Creek Parkway, U.S. 380 and PGA Parkway.
Karahan said large parcels are getting scarce in the older Legacy area of Plano. "We can do a 200-acre campus [at Fields] if there's a larger user," he told the News.
Hage said the team expects interest from companies needing more than 1 million square feet as well as those looking for about 100,000 square feet. KDC is in the early stages of marketing the land, and Hage estimated that office construction could begin sometime in 2027. Neither side named any company that is looking at the site.
Karahan previously told the News that AT&T considered Fields before choosing to stay in Plano, and that he believed the site was too far north for the company.
