Plano’s Haggard Farm progresses
Dallas developer Stillwater Capital, the Haggard Family and hospitality operator WoodHouse are progressing with their Haggard Farms project.
The group held a public groundbreaking ceremony Thursday evening.
Phase one of the project will include 100,000 square feet of retail, 350 apartments, 188 townhome units, trails and acres of park improvements. Foundational work is expected to finish in late spring 2026.
The Haggard family was one of Collin County’s earliest major landowners, buying properties starting in mid-1800s. They used the land for farming and ranching. At one time, the Haggards owned thousands of acres between U.S. Highway 75 and the current tollway corridor, according to previous Dallas Morning News reporting.
The mixed-use project received initial approvals from the city in 2021.
“Since 1865, our family has stewarded this farmland,” Rutledge Haggard of the Haggard Family said in a statement. “Now, we’re honoring our family’s legacy by building something meaningful that will connect people, nature and community for generations to come.”

Law firm lands at Harwood No. 4
Global law firm K&L Gates LLP has new office digs in the Harwood District.
The firm is occupying an entire floor — nearly 23,000 square feet — at Harwood No. 4 at 2828 N. Harwood St. The firm will consolidate its Fort Worth office into the new Dallas location. K&L Gates has had a presence in Texas for more than 50 years.
The firm is moving from downtown Dallas after spending roughly four decades at Comerica Bank Tower. Plans for the move were announced last year.
“Our move to new office space in Dallas marks an exciting chapter for K&L Gates in Texas,” Beth Petronio, managing partner of the Dallas office, said in a statement. “This relocation reflects our deep commitment to serving clients across the region and to growth in the Texas market as a strategic priority for the firm.”
Harwood No. 4 was previously owned by Dallas developer Harwood International. The building was sold to Spear Street Capital in April after the Dallas developer defaulted. The San Francisco-based firm has plans for multimillion-dollar upgrades at the property.
