Endeavor will be responsible for developing 17 acres of commercial retail along the frontage of 183A Toll within the Northline development. The company is behind widely known retail centers such as The Domain and Southpark Meadows in Austin.
Another detail
Charlie Northington with Endeavor said the goal is for the 17-acre project to have a grocery store anchored shopping center featuring restaurant and retail opportunities.
Endeavor is also responsible for building a multifamily portion within the Northline development, Northline founder and developer Alex Tynberg said.
The background
Envisioned as Leander's new downtown district, Northline will be a walkable hub with retail, office, health care, public space and residential offerings. Some of the development’s multifamily and townhome portions already have residents.
Horizontal construction—building infrastructures and groundwork—on the mixed-use center began in 2020, while vertical construction kicked off in 2022.

While Council did not vote on anything during the workshop, a few members showed support of the proposed changes to the Northline development agreement. Officials said Tynberg and his team will continue to meet with city staff biweekly.
