“The Dallas North Tollway will serve as a major transportation addition within the community and will increase accessibility
within the community, will provide quick access to the regional highway network and will serve as a catalyst in attracting new
development.”
Dallas North Tollway District
•The Dallas North Tollway district will consist of the most intense land uses within Prosper.
•A diverse mixture of office, retail and residential will likely develop along the corridor.
•Office buildings should be designed for a “campus feel”—they should be oriented towards common public space with
significant landscaping and should be linked by a pedestrian network.
•Mixed-use development should be encouraged and should contain a mixture of office, retail and residential uses.
•Structured parking should be encouraged in more intense areas to limit the presence and visibility of large parking lots.
Structured parking should be oriented in a way that minimizes visibility from the Tollway.
Vertical Mixed Use Developments
“In Prosper, vertical integration of mixed-uses will likely occur within the Dallas North Tollway…..”
