Irving – Las Colinas – Projects
Aside from a few established residential communities Las Colinas was until recent years a simple DFW business stronghold among others. Some shared Ben Carpenter’s vision and have long established locations or Headquarters in Las Colinas such as Exxon Mobil, Citigroup, Fluor, Chase and Kimberly Clark to name a few. Others however have recently noticed its “Silicon Valley” potential and most of all the best DFW location. Within a few years Ben Carpenter’s complete vision will be reality with a modern and upgraded twist regardless of the existing recession or financial crisis.
