Marco mixed-use development at DNT and University Drive
Prosper
Summary
The biggest development in Prosper's history got its final zoning approval: 143 acres at the tollway's most prominent corner, with a lagoon centerpiece, village retail, and up to 4,400 housing units (2,500 mid-rise cap). Council negotiated hard on phasing so apartments don't outpace retail and the lagoon amenity is usable from day one.

Impact analysis
The zoning itself carries no direct cost, but the project will bring substantial future tax base, infrastructure obligations, and four upcoming development agreements covering utilities, parks, and possible incentives.
Residents gain a walkable, amenity-rich destination at the town's gateway; the developer gains certainty on 143 acres.
Residents concerned about multifamily density along the 380 corridor remain wary despite the negotiated caps.
