From massive development projects to highly anticipated theme parks, Frisco is busy with construction in 2025. These projects will greatly impact the city, this year and the years that come.
Though construction will be taking place this year, many of these ongoing city developments are expected to extend through 2025.
Here are Frisco’s six major ongoing projects:

Fields stands out with its distinctive features, such as the nearby headquarters of the PGA of America and its championship golf courses, luxury hotels, vast miles of parks and the addition of Universal Studios theme park, which surround Fields.

Frisco Fields is poised to drive long-term growth in Frisco. As the development moves forward, it is expected to attract additional investments and projects, further solidifying Frisco’s status as a prominent city in North Texas. These exceptional attractions position Fields as not only an impressive development but also a key draw for the talent fueling potential corporate relocations.
