McKinney, Texas (PRWEB) February 23, 2014 -- D CEO Managing Editor Christine Perez conducted a second interview with Craig Ranch’s Master Developer, David Craig, aptly titled, “McKinney’s Craig Ranch, Act II” in the latest issue of D Magazine’s D CEO, which covers emerging entrepreneurs and provides expert analysis on real estate, law, health care and technology.
Perez first interviewed Craig in 2001, when Craig Ranch was simply a vision set to take over a 1,125-acre site west of McKinney. Now with 2,200 acres, 2,700 single-family homes (plus 1,100 more in the works), TPC Craig Ranch, the Cooper Fitness Center at Craig Ranch, speculative office development underway and multifamily units, David Craig’s vision has come to life.
“[Craig Ranch] was at the crossroads of Collin County, where four cities come together—McKinney, Allen, Plano, and Frisco,” Craig told Perez about when he first discovered the land for Craig Ranch. “And it featured magnificent topography, with limestone bluffs and Rowlett Creek, which traverses through the middle of the property. It was 1,125 acres of contiguous land in a prime location.”
Despite a few years of inactivity, Craig Ranch is now ready for its “second act” thanks to the completion of Sam Rayburn Tollway and the public-private partnership with the City of McKinney to create a business park, which will have more than 2.5 million square feet of office space.
Perez concluded the article with a fitting quote from David Craig: “Craig Ranch has proven itself as a master planned community...we’re now considered an ‘A’ location. Our time has arrived.”
