When Hillwood Communities develops a master-planned residential community, they don't just build homes—they build complete neighborhoods with the commercial infrastructure to support them. That's exactly what's happening at Pecan Plaza, Hillwood's newest commercial development coming to Northlake at the intersection of FM 407 and Cleveland-Gibbs Road.
As Hillwood community specialists who live and work in this area, we're excited to share everything we know about Pecan Plaza: what's coming, when it's opening, and what this means for Northlake's continued growth and home values.
What is Pecan Plaza?
The Basics
Pecan Plaza is a new commercial retail development located at the southwest corner of FM 407 and Cleveland-Gibbs Road (formerly Cleveland-Gibbs Road) in Northlake, Texas.
Developer: Office Equity Solutions (developing for Hillwood)
Site Work Contractor: CT Excavating (handling infrastructure and site preparation)
Location: Southwest corner FM 407 & Cleveland-Gibbs Road, Northlake, TX
Status: Currently under construction (grading and infrastructure phase)
Opening: First tenants expected Spring-Summer 2026
Why "Pecan Plaza"?
The name pays homage to the area's agricultural heritage—the same inspiration behind Pecan Square by Hillwood, the award-winning master-planned community less than 2 miles west. Both developments honor Northlake's pecan grove history while bringing modern conveniences to the area.
Hillwood's Role
While Office Equity Solutions is the developer managing day-to-day construction, Hillwood is the landowner and strategic partner behind Pecan Plaza. This is significant because it demonstrates Hillwood's commitment to creating complete communities—not just building homes and walking away.
Hillwood's Commercial Track Record:
- Harvest Town Center (Argyle/Northlake) - Tom Thumb opening Spring 2026, Chuy's, retail, municipal offices
- AllianceTexas (Fort Worth/Westlake) - 27,000 acres, 590+ companies, 66,000+ jobs
- Frisco Station - Mixed-use development with retail, office, residential
- Pecan Square amenities - Award-winning Town Square with 22,000 sq ft Arena, fitness, pools, co-working
When Hillwood backs a commercial project, it's done right.

2. Little Caesars Pizza
Construction Timeline:
- Start: April 2026
- Completion: July 2026
About Little Caesars:
Little Caesars is a global pizza chain known for its "Hot-N-Ready" pizzas—customers can walk in and pick up a fresh pizza without waiting for it to bake from scratch. This convenience model makes Little Caesars popular for families, especially those with kids involved in sports and activities.
Menu Highlights:
- Cheese and pepperoni pizzas
- Supreme and specialty pizzas
- Crazy Puffs and Crazy Bread
- Ultimate Cheesesteak Pizza
- Wings and sides
Community Impact:
Beyond pizza, Little Caesars is known for community involvement and charitable programs. The chain supports local schools, sports teams, and community events—a perfect fit for Northlake's family-oriented demographic.
Strategic Addition:
Pizza is one of the most requested dining options in growing communities. Little Caesars fills a quick-service dining gap for Pecan Square, Harvest, and Northlake residents looking for convenient, affordable family meals.
What's Next?
With CVS and Little Caesars confirmed, Pecan Plaza has its anchor pharmacy and its first dining option. Additional tenants are expected to be announced throughout 2026 as the development continues.
Likely Categories for Future Tenants:
- Additional quick-service restaurants (coffee, sandwiches, fast casual)
- Service businesses (banks, salons, dry cleaning)
- Retail (dollar stores, convenience, specialty shops)
- Medical/dental offices
We'll update this blog as new tenants are announced.
Location & Access
The Perfect Intersection
Pecan Plaza sits at one of Northlake's most strategic intersections:
FM 407: Major east-west corridor connecting Argyle, Northlake, and points east toward I-35W and Denton
Cleveland-Gibbs Road: North-south connector (recently renamed from Gibbs Road after the Cleveland-Gibbs Road split)
Why This Location Works:
- High traffic volume - FM 407 is a primary route for Alliance workers, Denton residents, and Argyle/Northlake residents
- Easy I-35W access - Less than 1 mile east to I-35W northbound/southbound
- Serves multiple communities - Pecan Square (1.5 miles west), Harvest (3 miles west), Northlake proper, eastern Denton County
- Minimal competition - Limited retail at this specific intersection creates first-mover advantage
Distance from Major Communities
From Pecan Square by Hillwood:
- Distance: ~1.5-2 miles east on FM 407
- Drive time: 3-5 minutes
From Harvest by Hillwood:
- Distance: ~3-4 miles east on FM 407
- Drive time: 6-8 minutes
From Northlake Town Center:
- Distance: ~2 miles
- Drive time: 4-6 minutes
From I-35W:
- Distance: Less than 1 mile west
- Drive time: 2-3 minutes
From Alliance Town Center:
- Distance: ~12 miles west
- Drive time: 18-20 minutes
Infrastructure Improvements Supporting Pecan Plaza
FM 407 Expansion:
FM 407 is undergoing significant widening and improvement projects, including:
- Widening to six lanes from Cleveland-Gibbs Road to Gateway Drive (east of I-35W in Argyle's ETJ)
- Intersection improvements at I-35W and FM 407 (adding two lanes—one in each direction—to alleviate congestion)
- Better turn lanes and traffic signal timing
Expected completion: 2027 (some delays from original 2026 timeline)
Cleveland-Gibbs Road Extension:
Cleveland-Gibbs Road is being extended from FM 1171 all the way to Robson Ranch Road, with primary concrete poured and connection expected by April-May 2026. This improves north-south connectivity across Northlake and makes Pecan Plaza even more accessible.
I-35W Frontage Roads:
Full frontage roads are coming to I-35W between Denton and Northlake, with construction potentially starting in 2026. This project will fully rebuild interchanges and bridges at:
- Robson Ranch Road
- FM 407
- Old Justin Road
These improvements make Pecan Plaza more accessible from both directions on I-35W.
Pecan Plaza vs. Other Northlake Commercial Developments
Northlake has several commercial nodes developing simultaneously. Here's how they compare:
Pecan Plaza (FM 407 & Cleveland-Gibbs Road)
Developer: Office Equity Solutions for Hillwood
Status: Under construction, first tenants 2026
Anchor: CVS Pharmacy
Focus: Neighborhood retail and services
Serves: Eastern Pecan Square, Northlake proper, eastern Denton County
Timeline: 2026 opening
Harvest Town Center (FM 407 & I-35W)
Developer: Hillwood Communities
Status: Under construction, first tenants 2026
Anchors: Tom Thumb (63,000 sq ft), Chuy's Tex-Mex, municipal offices
Focus: Grocery-anchored lifestyle center
Serves: Harvest, western Pecan Square, Argyle
Timeline: Tom Thumb Spring 2026, Chuy's early 2026
Northlake Crossing (Cleveland-Gibbs Road & Robson Ranch Road)
Developer: Various
Status: Actively developing
Focus: Mixed retail and service businesses
Serves: Central Northlake, The Ridge, surrounding neighborhoods
Timeline: Businesses moving in 2026
Northlake Commons (FM 407, Harvest area)
Developer: Part of Harvest by Hillwood
Status: Established
Features: Retail, restaurants, services, municipal offices, town square
Serves: Harvest community, western Northlake
Timeline: Operational, continuing buildout
Chadwick Farms (Near StarCenter Multisport)
Developer: Chadwick Farms partnership
Status: Approved, in development
Features: 900 multi-family units, 150+ room hotel, conference center, 60,000 sq ft retail/restaurants/entertainment
Serves: StarCenter visitors, Northlake residents, regional draw
Timeline: Retail/restaurants opening Summer-Fall 2026
The Strategy: Multiple Nodes
Rather than concentrating all retail in one location, Northlake is developing multiple commercial nodes along FM 407 and Cleveland-Gibbs Road. This strategy:
- Reduces traffic congestion - Spreads retail across multiple intersections
- Improves convenience - Residents have closer access from different parts of town
- Attracts diverse tenants - Different nodes can specialize (grocery vs. pharmacy vs. entertainment)
- Increases tax base - More retail = more sales tax revenue for town services
Pecan Plaza fits perfectly into this multi-node strategy, serving the eastern portion of Northlake's residential growth.
What Pecan Plaza Means for Northlake Home Values
Retail Amenities Drive Home Values
Decades of real estate research confirm that homes with convenient access to essential retail services command premium prices compared to homes requiring longer drives.
A 2019 study by the National Association of Realtors found that proximity to retail amenities can increase home values by 5-15%, with pharmacies and grocery stores among the highest-impact categories.
For Northlake residents—particularly Pecan Square homeowners—Pecan Plaza means:
- Reduced drive times for everyday needs (pharmacy, quick meals)
- Improved quality of life (less time in car, more time at home)
- Increased buyer appeal when selling ("pharmacy 2 miles away" is a tangible selling point)
- Market validation (national retailers investing = strong demographics)
Investment Confidence Signal
When national chains invest millions in a community, other retailers take notice.
CVS's $4 million Pecan Plaza investment signals to other potential tenants:
- "This market is strong"
- "Demographics support retail"
- "Growth trajectory is positive"
- "We should be here too"
This creates a snowball effect—one major tenant attracts others, building a complete retail ecosystem faster.
Comparison to Similar Hillwood Communities
Harvest by Hillwood (Argyle/Northlake):
Harvest's commercial development (Harvest Town Center, Northlake Commons) directly contributed to home value appreciation. Homes near completed commercial phases appreciated 15-20% faster than similar homes in communities without commercial amenities.
Frisco Station:
Hillwood's mixed-use development in Frisco saw residential property values increase 20-25% within 3 years of retail/dining openings, significantly outpacing comparable neighborhoods without walkable retail.
The Pattern:
Hillwood-backed commercial developments consistently deliver measurable value increases to surrounding residential properties. Pecan Plaza follows this proven playbook.
Specific Impact on Pecan Square
For Pecan Square by Hillwood homeowners, Pecan Plaza offers:
Eastern Pecan Square addresses:
- CVS Pharmacy: 1.5-2 miles (3-5 min drive)
- Previously: CVS Argyle was 4 miles (8-10 min drive)
- Value impact: Eastern lots now have better pharmacy access than before, potentially closing a 5-10% value gap with western lots closer to Harvest Town Center
Entire Pecan Square community:
- More dining options (Little Caesars, plus future restaurants)
- Additional service businesses as plaza fills out
- Reduced need to drive to Denton, Flower Mound, or Southlake for everyday needs
- Value impact: Complete community = higher buyer demand = sustained appreciation
Hillwood's Strategic Vision: Residential + Commercial Integration
Why This Matters
Most residential developers build homes, then hope commercial follows. Hillwood does it differently—they control the commercial development to ensure it complements their residential communities.
Pecan Plaza is not an accident. It's part of Hillwood's deliberate strategy to create complete, self-sufficient communities where residents can:
- Live (Pecan Square, Harvest)
- Work (AllianceTexas, local offices)
- Shop (Pecan Plaza, Harvest Town Center)
- Play (community amenities, town squares, trails)
- Learn (on-site Northwest ISD schools)
This integrated approach differentiates Hillwood from competitors and drives long-term value for homeowners.
Lessons from AllianceTexas
Hillwood pioneered the residential + commercial integration model at AllianceTexas, their 27,000-acre mixed-use development in Fort Worth/Westlake.
The AllianceTexas Model:
- 66,000+ jobs across 590 companies
- Residential communities within commuting distance
- Retail and dining serving both workers and residents
- Infrastructure investments supporting all uses
The Result: AllianceTexas became one of the most successful master-planned developments in American history, with property values appreciating 30-40% faster than comparable DFW areas.
Pecan Plaza follows the AllianceTexas playbook at a smaller scale:
- Residential base (Pecan Square, Harvest, Northlake neighborhoods)
- Employment access (AllianceTexas, Denton, local businesses)
- Strategic retail (Pecan Plaza, Harvest Town Center)
- Infrastructure support (FM 407 expansion, I-35W improvements)
The 15-Year Vision
Hillwood thinks in decades, not years. Here's how Pecan Plaza likely fits into their long-term vision:
Phase 1 (2026-2028):
- CVS and Little Caesars open
- 2-3 additional tenants join (coffee, services, retail)
- Pecan Square nears buildout (3,100 homes complete)
- Harvest reaches completion (4,000+ homes)
Phase 2 (2028-2032):
- Pecan Plaza fully leased
- Additional pad sites developed
- Potential expansion to adjacent parcels
- Northlake population exceeds 15,000
Phase 3 (2032-2040):
- Mature retail node serving established communities
- Potential redevelopment or intensification
- Integration with broader FM 407 corridor retail ecosystem
Hillwood's patient capital and long-term vision mean Pecan Plaza will continue evolving to meet community needs for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will Pecan Plaza open?
Pecan Plaza is opening in phases. CVS Pharmacy (anchor tenant) is expected to open May-June 2026, followed by Little Caesars Pizza in July 2026. Additional tenants will be announced and will open throughout 2026-2027 as construction completes.
Who is developing Pecan Plaza?
Office Equity Solutions is the developer managing construction and leasing. However, Hillwood is the landowner and strategic partner behind the project, ensuring it aligns with their residential communities (Pecan Square, Harvest).
What other tenants are coming to Pecan Plaza?
As of January 2026, CVS Pharmacy and Little Caesars Pizza are confirmed. Additional tenants are expected to be announced throughout 2026. Likely categories include coffee shops, banks, salons, additional dining, and service businesses.
We'll update this blog as new tenants are confirmed.
How is Pecan Plaza different from Harvest Town Center?
Pecan Plaza is located at FM 407 & Cleveland-Gibbs Road (eastern Northlake), anchored by CVS Pharmacy, and focuses on neighborhood retail and services.
Harvest Town Center is located at FM 407 & I-35W (western Northlake/Argyle), anchored by Tom Thumb grocery store, and functions as a larger lifestyle center with grocery, dining (Chuy's), and municipal offices.
Both serve different geographic areas and complement each other rather than compete.
Will there be a grocery store at Pecan Plaza?
Unlikely. Tom Thumb at Harvest Town Center (3 miles west) is opening Spring 2026 and will serve as the primary grocery for Pecan Square and Northlake. CVS will offer convenience items and snacks, but not full grocery selection.
Is Pecan Plaza part of Pecan Square by Hillwood?
No, Pecan Plaza is a separate commercial development, though both are backed by Hillwood and share the "Pecan" naming heritage honoring the area's agricultural history.
Pecan Square by Hillwood is the 1,200-acre, 3,100-home residential master-planned community.
Pecan Plaza is the new commercial retail development at FM 407 & Cleveland-Gibbs Road serving Pecan Square and surrounding areas.
How does this affect traffic on FM 407?
Any new retail increases traffic, but Pecan Plaza's impacts are mitigated by:
- Southwest corner location providing easy in-and-out access
- Spread-out hours (pharmacy and pizza don't create rush-hour spikes like restaurants)
- Ongoing FM 407 expansion adding lanes and improving traffic flow
- Multiple commercial nodes across Northlake (spreading demand)
Additionally, Pecan Plaza reduces outbound traffic by keeping residents local rather than driving to Denton or Flower Mound for pharmacy and dining needs.
Can I walk or bike to Pecan Plaza from Pecan Square?
Depends on your address. Eastern Pecan Square addresses may be within walking/biking distance (1.5-2 miles), though sidewalk and trail connectivity will determine practical walkability.
Most residents will drive the 3-5 minutes for convenience, especially when picking up prescriptions or takeout.
Future connectivity: As Northlake continues developing trails and sidewalks, walking/biking to Pecan Plaza may become more feasible for nearby residents.
Will Pecan Plaza have a gas station?
Not confirmed. CVS sometimes co-locates with gas stations at larger developments, but no gas station has been announced for Pecan Plaza as of January 2026.
The nearest gas stations are along I-35W (less than 1 mile east) and at various locations along FM 407.
What's the timeline for full buildout?
Commercial developments typically take 3-5 years to fully lease and build out.
Expected timeline:
- 2026: CVS, Little Caesars, 1-2 additional tenants open
- 2027: Additional tenants announced and constructed
- 2028-2029: Plaza reaches 80-90% occupancy
- 2030: Potential expansion or adjacent development
This timeline assumes strong leasing activity driven by Northlake's continued residential growth.

Pecan Plaza's Role
Pecan Plaza is a critical piece of Northlake's transformation from rural town to complete, self-sufficient community.
By adding essential retail (pharmacy) and convenient dining (pizza) in a strategic location, Pecan Plaza:
- Serves the eastern residential growth
- Complements Harvest Town Center on the west
- Validates Northlake's demographic strength to other potential retailers
- Contributes sales tax revenue for town infrastructure
- Makes Northlake a more attractive destination for homebuyers
The 2045 Comprehensive Plan
Northlake's Comprehensive Plan 2045 (adopted February 2024) envisions the town's future through 2045, including:
Land Use Goals:
- Preserve 50% of town for open spaces and large lots
- Strategic commercial development along FM 407 corridor
- Mixed-use nodes at key intersections
- Balance growth with rural character preservation
Pecan Plaza aligns perfectly with this vision:
- Located on FM 407 corridor (designated for commercial)
- Serves residential without encroaching on preserved open space
- Creates mixed-use node at strategic intersection
- Supports growth while maintaining character
Northlake's leadership is thoughtfully planning commercial development to serve residents without sacrificing what makes the town special.
Why We're Excited (A Realtor's Perspective)
As Hillwood community specialists and Top Hillwood Realtors for two consecutive years, we're thrilled about Pecan Plaza for several reasons:
1. It Validates Our Market Predictions
We've been telling clients for two years: "Buy in Northlake and Pecan Square now—the retail is coming."
Pecan Plaza (CVS + Little Caesars), Harvest Town Center (Tom Thumb + Chuy's), and Northlake Crossing prove we were right. Early buyers are already seeing strong appreciation, and this trend will accelerate as retail opens.
2. It Removes Buyer Objections
When showing Pecan Square homes—especially eastern addresses—some buyers ask: "Where's the nearest pharmacy?"
Previously: "CVS Argyle, 4 miles west."
Now: "CVS at Pecan Plaza, less than 2 miles east, opening Summer 2026."
That's a significantly better answer, and it removes friction from the buying decision.
3. It Completes the Ecosystem
Successful master-planned communities need:
- ✅ Quality homes (Pecan Square delivers)
- ✅ Top-rated schools (Northwest ISD, on-site campuses)
- ✅ Amenities (Jackson Hall, The Arena, pools, parks, trails)
- ✅ Grocery access (Tom Thumb at Harvest Town Center, 3 miles)
- ✅ Pharmacy access (CVS at Pecan Plaza, 2 miles)
- ✅ Dining variety (Chuy's, Little Caesars, plus existing options)
Pecan Plaza checks the pharmacy box, making Pecan Square a truly complete community.
4. It Enhances Our Client Experience
For our clients—both current homeowners and prospective buyers—Pecan Plaza means:
Current homeowners:
- Improved quality of life (convenient pharmacy and dining)
- Measurable property value increase (retail proximity premium)
- Strong resale appeal when they decide to move
Prospective buyers:
- Confidence they're buying into a complete community
- No "waiting for promised retail" uncertainty
- Clear path to appreciation as plaza fills out
5. It's the Hillwood Difference
We specialize in Hillwood communities because Hillwood does it right.
Most developers:
- Build homes
- Hope commercial follows eventually
- Move on to next project
- Leave residents waiting for retail (sometimes for years)
Hillwood:
- Builds exceptional residential communities
