‘A completely different town’: Prosper looks to balance growth with small-town roots

When Elizabeth Ross moved to Prosper in 2010, Preston Road was still two lanes. Now, after years of rapid growth, her house is on the market, and she’s looking east for more space and a slower pace.

The gist: Concerns about multifamily and density have continued to be points of conversation for Prosper officials over the last several years. This has resulted in some projects, such as Prosper Oaks, being tabled, while others, like additional housing at the Gates of Prosper, have drawn careful review. Most recently, the Bella Prosper development was first presented in November and tabled to 2026 over those same concerns.

Zooming in: As multifamily development continues, Mayor David Bristol said council’s philosophy is to only approve additional multifamily along Dallas North Tollway, which was reinforced by the town's new development standards. Bristol said the council is looking for high-quality developments that add value to the town when considering proposed projects.

Joint restaurant IHOP, Applebees coming to Dallas Love Field Airport

Dallas Love Field Airport will be gaining a new restaurant this month, though an opening date has not been determined, said Lauren Rounds, the external communications and marketing manager for the airport. 

A joint restaurant containing IHOP and Applebees will be located on the public side of the terminal, between the Transportation Security Administration screening area and the baggage claim hallway, she said. 

The diner will be where the former Bruegger’s Bagels was located, which closed in August, Rounds said.
