Item 7B Plan 3FINAL DRAFT February 9, 2005 3.0 PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS State Highway 114 functions as the dominant economic engine for northeast Tarrant County. The highway serves as a link between DFW International Airport (one of the nation's busiest airports) and the Fort Worth Alliance Airport (important multimodal distribution center). Together, these two transportation facilities form the key transportation hub of the mid- continent United States and make the S.H. 114 Corridor extremely attractive nationally and internationally as a location for business, retail and industrial development that will ultimately result in a large number of people working, shopping and dining along the S.H. 114 corridor. A significant portion of land north along S.H. 114 between Kimball Avenue and White Chapel Blvd. in the city of Southlake is currently undeveloped. However, property south of S.H. 114 and east of Carroll Avenue is the location of regional scale retail developments that include: • Southlake Town Square • Village Center • Southlake Corners • Gateway Plaza S.H. 114 in Southlake is also home to key regional employment centers that include: Verizon Wireless • Sabre Holdings World Headquarters Regionally, S.H. 114 Corridor is also home to key employment centers in Westlake that include Fidelity and Solana. 3.1 Major Retail Development in the S.

Southlake 2025 Plan 17 S.H. 114 Corridor Plan Area Phase 11 Analysis & Recommendations View of the Fidelity Regional Office Campus February 9, 2005 A number of major projects have been planned or are recently underway along S.H. 114 including: Cedar Rid ee Q ice Complex by Panatonni Artist's rendering of Cedar Ridge Office Complex a X 01 SITE PLAN W%FW M J 1Tii SR 114 3 CARROLL SCHOOL ROAD PANAYYONI DSVRLOPM6NRCOMPANY.

In addition to the above development, several concept plans for larger office campuses have been approved over the past few years including Granite, Aventerra, etc. However, depressed office market conditions over the last three years and the highway construction have limited development of these larger projects. Over the past year, smaller, garden -style (one - story, smaller building footprint) office developments are cropping up along S.H. 114. The goal of this planning effort is to evaluate the best strategy and recommend policies to encourage the development of the S.H. 114 Corridor to its full potential as a retail and employment center for Northeast Tarrant County.
