Richardson Development At A Glance

Richardson, Texas construction and development continues to bring new investment, redevelopment and commercial activity to this established North Texas employment center. From restaurants and retailers to housing, healthcare, technology and mixed-use projects, Texas Construction Media is tracking what’s being planned and built across Richardson.

We follow projects from the earliest stages — including permits, filings and site plans — through groundbreaking, construction and grand opening. When a new restaurant prepares a location, a retailer enters the market or another major development begins taking shape, we’re following the story.

Richardson traces its beginnings to the 1800s, when settlement and railroad development helped establish a small farming community north of Dallas. The town was named for railroad contractor E.H. Richardson and incorporated in 1925 before postwar suburban growth transformed the community during the second half of the 20th century.

Today, Richardson stretches across Dallas and Collin counties with major connections along U.S. 75, President George Bush Turnpike and the DART rail system. Those transportation links connect the city with Dallas and employment centers throughout North Texas while supporting continued residential and commercial investment.

Technology and telecommunications have become defining parts of Richardson’s economy. The Telecom Corridor developed into a major concentration of technology companies and corporate employers, helping support office development, hotels, restaurants, housing and other businesses serving the city’s workforce.

As Richardson has matured, redevelopment and infill have become increasingly important parts of its construction landscape. Established commercial properties and older office areas create opportunities for new uses, while mixed-use development and transit-oriented projects are adding housing, dining and services around major employment and transportation centers.
