Much of the work at The Star in Frisco has focused on the public elements, including the Cowboys' headquarters, seen under construction in April. Work will begin this month on the adjoining entertainment district.

Construction will start this month on the entertainment district that will serve as the gateway to the Dallas Cowboys’ new training facility in Frisco.

Much of the work this past year at the site known as The Star in Frisco has focused on the public portion of the project — an indoor stadium, an underground parking garage and two outdoor practice fields — along with the team’s new headquarters building.

The private development piece is just getting started as part of this joint effort among the Cowboys, the city of Frisco and Frisco ISD. Despite some setbacks from the rainy weather, crews are putting in extra hours to meet the June 2016 opening date for the main attraction.

I live right across the street and it has been amazing to see how quickly this has been progressing

Was the area before undeveloped (natural land, trees, nature, etc) or are they replacing already developed land? Just curious.

It is at the NW corner of Warren Pkwy and Dallas North Tollway. No trees. Already cleared land based on this image.

why didnt the concrete pump just drive round the other side?

Probably easier access for the concrete trucks to get to that low side instead of getting to the high side.

Forrest should have invested in Texas Chile instead of shrimp!

Hatch is where it's at...............and you, from N.M.

I'm from N.M. also....and soon, when the harvest comes in, I am going to order me some more Hatch shipped up here to Utah...so hot you need to piss in the river so that you don't set the forest on fire.

Actually, there is much better green chile around here but Hatch is not bad.

LOL...... Hatch is not bad and if you are in an area of the country where it is difficult to get green chile at all, then Hatch Green Chile is a godsend. However, there certain little towns in NM where the Chile is actually better. You just don't hear much about them, which is actually cool.

Cebolla, Nambe, Pojoaque perhaps?

Just north of Santa Fe, they have some decent chile but it really depends on the year and how much moister we get. The northern part of the state usually does get more rain so in a wet season, like we had last year, it effects the quality.
