The community offers 29 acres of green and open space and is set to provide for a future population of 3,456, with 15,000 employment opportunities. Frisco Station is located next door to Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, the Dallas Cowboys’ headquarters and multi-use event center.
The Towers at Frisco Station will comprise Class A high-rise office buildings built-to-suit with a total of 3 million square feet.

SkyHouse is the second living community under construction at Frisco Station. The first was the 301-unit Station House, which will begin leasing this summer. Upon completion of the development, the residential component of Frisco Station will comprise 25.5 acres and more than 2,000 apartments.
“The City of Frisco continues to experience unprecedented growth, which has created strong demand for housing options that appeal to residents ranging from young professionals to empty-nesters,” said Mike Berry, president of Hillwood. “SkyHouse is an essential addition to Frisco Station to help us meet this growing demand. Its features and amenities complement the existing multifamily development, Station House, while meeting the Frisco Station mission of delivering a unique smart, creative and healthy environment.”
