Site preparation has officially begun to make way for a new 400-acre residential project in City Place, officials with developer CDC Houston announced in a news release May 3.

As previously reported by Community Impact Newspaper, CDC Houston announced a new partnership with Arizona-based DMB Development in June 2021 with plans of adding roughly 600 new single- and multifamily housing units to the 2,000-acre master-planned community by 2023. City Place is currently home to two single-family housing communities—Audubon Grove and Harper Woods—and three multifamily housing communities—The Belvedere, The Mark and The Canopy.

"Best known for its highly-quality office environment; upscale multifamily offerings; eclectic restaurant options and beautiful natural setting, complete with miles of trails, nature preserve and activated plaza, the next step for City Place is to define our space in the area's single-family residential landscape," CDC Houston President Warren Wilson said in a statement.

According to the May 3 news release, Phase 1 of the residential project will be located along the recent westward extension of East Mossy Oaks Road and include the addition of roughly 520 single-family units across 160 acres. Participating homebuilders will be announced this summer, according to the release, with residential product types and amenities to be announced in late 2022.

"This joint venture endeavor is the result [of an] extensive planning process to imagine what we anticipate will become one of the most talked about places to live in Greater Houston—focused on thoughtful design, pedestrian mobility, environmental projects and one-of-a-kind amenities," Wilson said.
