The area, along with the Veale Ranch development just south of Walsh, will be important in attracting new companies to the city, said Fort Worth City Council member Michael Crain, who represents this areaDistrict 3, said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be key to our growth going forward,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is attractive to new residents and to new businesses that want to come here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Walsh development began in 2015, with the transformation of a portion of the 7,200-acre ranch at the intersection of Iinterstates highways 20 and 30 into new neighborhoods. The land has been owned by the F. Howard Walsh family since the 1930s.<\/p>\n

The development is expected to have as many as 4,000 homes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re about 40%, maybe closer to 30%, there,\u201d said Jim Henry, vice president of community operations, Republic Property Group, the Dallas-based company currently developing 1,600 acres of the ranch in partnership with the Walsh Cos. \u201cWe\u2019ve made a lot of announcements this year, and there will be more to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

In April, Republic began work on another 138 homes in a new subdivision known as The Village, featuring homebuilders David Weekley Homes, Highland Homes, High Street Homes and<\/p>\n

Village Homes. Homes in The Village will start in the mid-$400,000s.<\/p>\n

The area also has added an apartment community that opened in September. Modera Walsh, from Mill Creek Residential, includes 335 conventional apartments, 20 townhomes and 24 casita homes.<\/p>\n

The area is attracting other businesses as well. A Cook Children\u2019s location offers pediatric urgent care, as well as orthopedic and sports medicine specialty care.<\/p>\n

More retail will come as the area grows, Henry said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been great to see it grow and really build a community here,\u201d he said. \u201cThis fire station is a big part of it.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Fort Worth Report, October 12, 2023, Bob Francis<\/a> and Cristian ArguetaSoto<\/a> | View Original Article<\/a><\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
