by John Nelson July 26, 2022

FRISCO, TEXAS — Crow Holdings Development (CHD), a Dallas-based real estate development firm and subsidiary of Crow Holdings, has released plans for The Offices at Southstone Yards, a mass timber office building in Frisco. The 235,000-square-foot property will anchor Southstone Yards, a 45-acre mixed-use development that will feature over 1 million square feet of office space at full buildout. In addition to offices, Southstone Yards will feature shops, restaurants, hotels, nine acres of green space, and more than 1,000 apartments and townhomes, including a five-story, 355-unit property that North Carolina-based LMC is developing.

by Jeff Shaw July 22, 2022

PHILADELPHIA — Josh Harris and David Blitzer, managing directors of the National Basketball Association’s Philadelphia 76ers, have formed a development corporation for construction of the team’s new arena, known as 76 Place, in Center City Philadelphia. Development costs are estimated at $1.3 billion, with plans to complete construction before the 2031-2032 NBA season. The property will be part of Fashion District Philadelphia, a 900,000-square-foot mall redevelopment that opened in September 2019. The team will partner closely with Macerich, which owns Fashion District, on the project. The transit-oriented site is located at Market Street and South 11th Street, adjacent to five SEPTA public transit lines and three blocks from city hall. The Fashion District project was once a highly regarded development with top-tier retailers, but struggled due to the COVID-19 pandemic closing the doors on many retailers just six months after opening. “The decision to repurpose part of Fashion District Philadelphia to include the new 76ers arena is a natural evolution of the site and a unique and once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our company,” says Tom O’Hern, CEO of Macerich. Team owner Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment tapped local real estate magnate David Adelman, CEO of Campus Apartments, co-founder of FS Investments …
