SkyWalker Property is developing the 20,200-square foot project at 5612 Edwards Ranch Rd. for its fund, When Opportunity Knocks LLC. Dr. Nathan Lesley, a orthopedic hand surgeon based in Fort Worth, has leased 50% of the two-story building and invested in the project. The 10,100-square foot balance is available for lease.

The as-yet unnamed project will be situated within a short drive of the Fort Worth medical district, where Lesley has his current office in the Fort Worth Hand Center. The 1.8-acre site also is close to Chisholm Trail Parkway and Interstates 20, 30 and 35.

“We had been searching a long time for a building to buy and renovate. Development seemed to be the quickest and best way to meet Dr. Lesley’s expansion needs,” said Gary Walker, founder and president of Arlington-based SkyWalker Property Partners. “When you can’t find what you want, you start to think ‘where would you want to build.’ We were fortunate to be able to acquire this site, which is an ideal location for his expanding practice.”

The medical office building will be completed in Q1 2020. Prim Construction LLC of Fort Worth is the general contractor. The local architect is 97w, a collaborative design firm. Frost Bank is the project lender. Walker‘s longtime colleagues Theron Bryant and Casey Tounget of Transwestern have been retained to lease the 10,100 square foot of available first-floor medical/general office space. Lesley has signed a 10-year lease for the entire second level to house his practice and full-service physical therapy clinic, The Hand & Upper Extremity Institute.

“Unfortunately, health-care costs continue to rise. With SkyWalker’s help, The Hand and Upper Extremity Institute will have the ability to offer comprehensive care from the initial patient visit through surgical procedures and physical therapy, if necessary,” Lesley said. “This will allow us to manage costs while continuing our mission of providing exceptional care to every patient, every time.”

The developer of record, I Can See Clear Fork Now LLC, is a single-purpose entity of SkyWalker‘s co-investment program, which requires a five- to 10-year lease commitment. Under the tenant partnership agreement, SkyWalker Property will build and provide leasing services until occupancy stabilization is achieved.

“This investment strategy was always intended to be a flexible facilitator of user/tenant needs. We’ve taken it to the next level with this ground-up project,” Walker explains. “And, we’re optimistic the future holds more tenant partnerships.”

Realty Capital and Staubach Capital have teamed up to build Lakeside International Office Center, a 138,000-square-foot property at International Parkway and Lakeside Parkway near the north entrance of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.

“Flower Mound has established itself as an attractive area for new residents and businesses with a growing number of shops, restaurants, entertainment and residential options in the Lakeside mixed-use community,” said Jeff Staubach, founding partner of Staubach Capital, in a prepared statement.  “Lakeside International Office Center will be the first of its kind in this part of the metroplex, providing a premium office experience with top-of-class amenities.”

The first tenant to pre-lease space in the office center is IntelliCentrics, according to JLL, which will handle marketing and leasing for the property, and also represented IntelliCentrics in the transaction.

IntelliCentrics, a Flower Mound health care technology company, signed on for 30,000-square-feet of space on the fourth floor of one of the new buildings. One building will encompass 120,000-square-feet of office space across four floors and the other will have two floors totalling 18,000 square feet.

“I am extremely excited for IntelliCentrics’ world-wide headquarters to locate in the Lakeside development in Flower Mound, and as a 22-year resident of Flower Mound I feel the vision is perfect for sustained growth benefiting both residents and commercial tenants,” said Mike Sheehan, CEO of IntelliCentrics, in a prepared statement.

The City of Flower Mound offered an “aggressive incentive package” to help Realty Capital obtain the debt financing needed for the project, according to a release from JLL.

“Without the incentive agreement, we wouldn’t have been able to obtain the financing to build the project on a speculative nature, said Realty Capital’s Jimmy Archie in a prepared statement. “Once we were able to obtain the financing and announce the project to the market, our first tenant showed up to lease a portion of the project prior to us breaking ground.”

BOKA Powell is the architecture firm behind the project, and Muckleroy and Falls is the general contractor. Construction on the buildings began this week, and they are expected to deliver in Q3 of 2020.

Roanoke City Council In Texas Approves Final Plans For Mixed-Use Development With Medical Building

/in , , /by

The Roanoke City Council has paved the way for the construction of a mixed-use development that would bring a medical building, office building, hotel and thousands of retail, and restaurant space to the city.

The City Council approved at its July 9 meeting the final plat, or site plan, for Roanoke Village located in the Dallas-Forth Worth Metroplex. The initial site plan was first approved in January.

The final plat approval was required before city staff and the project’s developer, Newstream Land Partners, can begin preconstruction meetings. Construction could begin after those meetings.

The 6.25-acre project is set to be built at the southeast corner of Parish Lane and US 377. Plans call for five buildings. One will be a medical building; one will be an office buildiing; one will be a SpringHill Suites hotel; and two will have retail and restaurant space.

According to plans submitted to the city, the project will include 14,500 square feet of office space, 28,470 square feet of retail space, and 11,273 square feet of restaurant space.

“Newstream started foundational work at the site in April,” said Troy Lewis, vice president of development with Newstream Construction Services. “Construction could begin by this fall. There is no timetable on when construction could be completed.”

“The project will be a destination within itself, with connectivity to  downtown Roanoke as well,” Roanoke Assistant City Manager Cody Petree said. “The hotel will be within walking distance of stores, restaurants and other amenities. This area is one of the ‘front doors’ into the city, so it’s great to see the project planned out so well and aesthetically pleasing.”

This is the second set of plans for mixed-use development approved by Roanoke City Council in the last month. At its June 11 meeting, council greenlighted Magnolia Oak Street, a three-story project set to be constructed on 2.01 acres at 601 N. Oak St. in Roanoke. Plans call for 78 residential units and 5,070 square feet of retail space. The project will also include 16 live-work units that combine living and work areas into a single unit.
