Construction on some Frisco projects delayed after spring rain

However, he said Manhattan Construction, the company in charge of the project, has adjusted its work schedule to address these delays.

“The development is going well. The multiuse events center, parking garage and headquarters are all moving along [and] can now be seen from Dallas and Warren parkways,” Patterson said. “In addition to the events center/headquarters, the block south of those facilities should start construction within the next couple of months.”

Patterson said he feels confident that The Star is still on schedule to open by August 2016 with a specific date to be determined later.

Construction for Wade Park, a mixed-use development on the southeast corner of the Dallas North Tollway and Lebanon Road, was pushed back 30 days because of the weather, said Kevin Chase, Thomas Land and Development senior vice president of development.

Chase said the rain hindered clearing the site and moving dirt to begin construction.

“We’ve made a plan for the days lost because of the rain, and we’ll get on track in the next 60 days,” Chase said.

Developers are waiting for city permits to begin cutting utility lines and construction of the underground parking garage.

Chase said Wade Park is still scheduled to open in early spring 2017.

Other smaller developments, such as the Frisco Aquatic Center and Performance Indoor Training+, had to delay their opening dates several times because of the rain, owners and city officials said.

The $6 million aquatic center was scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend but was delayed until June 13.

The Pit+, which is a new indoor and outdoor soccer facility, delayed its opening until June 20.
