Hillwood moving forward on 3,200 acre master planned community in Denton

Denton Site for Huge Master-Planned Community

Hillwood is moving forward on a massive, master-planned community in Denton. The project called Landmark will span over 3,200 acres. At build out, it will include 6,000 homes.

In addition to residential, Landmark will offer more than 5 million square feet of commercial, mixed-use space and over 3,000 multifamily units fronting more than 5 miles of I-35W. The master plan will integrate retail, dining, office, entertainment, hospitality and healthcare with green space similar to Parkside at Alliance Town Center.

It is one of the original land holdings purchased by the Perot family in 1987. The property’s most prominent feature, and the highest point in the city of Denton, is Pilot Knob. A unique geologic and ecological site in North Texas, Pilot Knob was considered a wayfinder for Indigenous peoples, frontier settlers and cattle drives. Hence, the name of the project; Landmark.

The masterplan was envisioned around a distinctive 1,100-acre green ecosystem anchored by a 300-acre entertainment and park district encompassing Pilot Knob and the surrounding hills
