Planning officials have greenlit a preliminary site plan for a midrise apartment building to be built on Headquarters Drive in Plano.

The gist

The Plano Planning and Zoning Commission voted 7-0 to approve the preliminary plan during an April 7 meeting. The plan includes details on development of multifamily buildings spread across two different lots on the property.



The mixed-use development was proposed by Capital Commercial Investments in 2024. Plano City Council approved a zoning request for the 107-acre property in November.


Plans for revitalizing the former JCPenney headquarters, now known as The Park at Legacy, include a mix of retail, office and residential space, and a hotel. The preliminary site plan approved in April focuses on future midrise development on two lots in particular though.

The details

The plan details the location of future midrise apartment buildings and related site improvements, according to city documents. Two midrise buildings will be located on the north side of the property.

A multifamily development is proposed for Lot 7R though plans are expected in the future after the developers have unlocked those units. Two other multifamily buildings are proposed for Lot 11.


Plans include a mid-rise residential building that's 25 stories tall and a two-story townhome development containing three units. Nearly 665,000 square feet will be developed. About 303 multifamily units are proposed for the development, according to city documents.
