Plano Looking at Plan to Turn Former EDS HQ into Life Sciences Campus
A developer has received the approval of its zoning request in Plano, allowing it to move forward on its plans to invest $1 billion toward the redevelopment of what was once the computer giant EDS corporate campus. Dallas-based developer NexPoint is proposing a mixed-use project built around a life sciences development campus that will include several components built out in four phases:
- 775 mid-rise apartments
- Over 4 million square feet of laboratory, office and therapeutic production space
- 9.5 acres of contiguous open space
- A hotel
Repositioning the former headquarters and subsequent development, which has a 91-acre footprint along with 109 acres of vacant land around the building, could create about 2,000 direct jobs.
