DTX-FRS: Impact 10/30/2025

Construction has gone vertical at the mixed-use development Firefly Park in Frisco near the intersection of PGA Parkway and Dallas North Tollway.

The details: Crews broke ground on The Noc and Aurora—two residential communities within the 217-acre Firefly Park development—in September and October, respectively.

When the development is completed, it will have residences, a hotel, retail and dining space, and a 45-acre park featuring lakes, trails, an art walk and playgrounds.

What's next? Construction on the retail space in the development will begin in December, Ellis said, and it will take about 10 months to build the shell spaces and an additional 10 months for tenants to fill the spaces. The retail space could be finished by fall 2027, and Wilks Development may start revealing tenants in November, Ellis said.

7 Brew opened Oct. 27 in Frisco, a company representative said.

On the menu: The Arkansas-headquartered company, which was founded in 2017, offers a variety of drink options including coffee, energy drinks, tea, lemonade, smoothies and milkshakes.
