Bell towers, 3,000-seat amphitheater, hotel, town hall, retail, restaurants among parts of development renamed Westlake Entrada
The idea of a 3,000-seat amphitheater in Westlake — population, roughly 1,000 — was the last major obstacle in discussions before the Town Council approved a $500 million development off Hwy. 114.
Entrada, on 85 acres, likely will have a river-type feature and other water features as the backdrop for an amphitheater, bell towers, hotel and convention center, town hall, a chapel, 322 homes and/or villas, restaurants, retail and movie theaters.
Other large anchors are still undetermined, although a memory care center and senior care have been mentioned during council presentations. Developer Jeff Blackard and developer/landowner Mehrdad Moayedi of Centurion American will return to the council later for approval of a more detailed site plan.
The council approved the concept plan unanimously April 22, about four months after the development along Hwy. 114 at FM 1938 and Solana Boulevard was first proposed.
