After deciding to develop its fifth office tower at Granite Park, Plano-based Granite Properties plans to bring a boardwalk-inspired restaurant row to its office park in West Plano.
The development, known simply as The Boardwalk, will include a destination restaurant row overlooking Granite Park's water feature in front of the newly opened 299-room Hilton Granite Park hotel and conference center along State Highway 121 in West Plano.
Granite plans to develop a total of 28,000 square feet of retail space, which equates into about five or six restaurants. Aaron Stephenson and John Giesler of Retail Street Advisors is marketing the restaurant space.
"Now with the hotel in place and a daytime population of 5,000 or 6,000 people, we wanted to provide them with the amenities they need, which includes restaurants," Granite Properties COO Greg Fuller told the Dallas Business Journal.
"With this project, we want to include outdoor dining areas, rooftop decks and really give it a sense of place with destination-type dining," he added.
Fuller said he hopes to break ground on the project in mid-2015.
Omniplan is the project's designer. The design of the new project is expected to be completed in early 2015 and Granite Properties expects to hire a general contractor after design is complete.
The restaurant tenants will be in close proximity to the office tenants in the 3 million square feet of office space and the Hilton hotel. The office tenants include Siemens, Ford Motor Co., Invensys and Texas Capital Bank.
The current estimated daytime population of Granite Park is 5,000 after the developer finishes the fifth tower. At full build-out, Granite Park is expected to have a daytime population of 10,000.
