Whitestone REIT acquired the restaurant-anchored World Cup Plaza in Frisco, Texas. The center is located adjacent to the home of FC Dallas: Toyota Stadium, a 21,000-seat stadium currently undergoing a $182 million renovation designed to enhance the fan experience. The stadium, which attracts more than 1.4 million visitors annually, will serve as an official World Cup Team Base Camp, allowing participating teams to utilize the state-of-the-art facility to train before games.

The 90,391 square-foot World Cup Plaza, situated at the northeast corner of main street and Dallas North Tollway sits across the street from Frisco Square, a 147-acre pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use development that features 1.5 million square feet of office space and 1,400 apartments.
