A Growing Community Attracts Thriving Businesses and Entrepreneurs

A key piece of a theme park, an airport expansion, a loft apartment project and the future of a theater designed by Frank Lloyd Wright are up for discussion and possible votes in North Texas cities this week.

The City of Dallas' Economic Development Committee will be briefed Dec. 2 and potentially authorize spending $49 million on the West End Lofts project.

A Dallas committee will get an update on the state of an architectural gem that’s slid into disrepair.

A 30,000-square-foot passenger terminal and other improvements slated for McKinney National Airport could get the go-ahead from the McKinney City Council.

Construction workers are preparing the site in Wylie where the future Jericho Village will sit. The groundbreaking was a month ago, but the vision for the development has been six years in the making.

"I really never thought this day would come," Rev. Janet Collinsworth said, looking at the work site. "I never even considered having, or building, or developing affordable housing, but I'm honored to be able to do this because it's a huge, huge need in our community."

Collinsworth started Agape, a nonprofit that helps women and single mothers facing homelessness, after a mid-life decision to go back to school at SMU to study theology. She intended the education to help her teach her daughter's confirmation classes, but the education was life-changing. Collinsworth left her successful CPA business and dove into the nonprofit world.
