New Commercial Developments Underway in Irving

New commercial developments are abundant in Irving. These developments are sure to bring entertainment and opportunity to Irving’s already-thriving economy.

Water Street

Visitors and residents alike will enjoy Water Street, which will boast over 130,000 square feet of retail space. This major, commercial development, which is slated to open by the fall of 2010, will be located in the Las Colinas Urban Center.

It is being developed by Gables Residential, who is already moving forward with the development’s zoning plans, plat plans and site plans. In fact, the plans for Water Street’s underground parking have already been approved and the plans for Water Street’s first building are being finalized.

Gables Residential and the Dallas County Utility and Reclamation District are working together to re-claim 1.2 acres of land from Lake Carolyn for the Water Street project.
