Far north Fort Worth is in the middle of a development surge, with thousands of new homes, apartments and retail spaces planned or under construction. From massive urban villages to lakeside subdivisions, here’s a look at the projects reshaping the area.

  • A residential development at Wagley Robertson Road and the future Heritage Trace Parkway will now have 204 homes instead of the originally planned 160 after Fort Worth approved a zoning change that added five acres. The 55-acre neighborhood will feature one-to-two story houses along with a park and pond in the center, with the preliminary plan under city review.
  • A $3 million commercial development called Shops at Presidio is planned near Harmon Ranch, featuring four single-story buildings totaling 37,000 square feet, with completion estimated for October 2027.
  • Over 300 homes could rise near Eagle Mountain Lake on a 93-acre property, with Our Country Homes and LJA Engineering proposing 304 residential lots, four business lots and eight green spaces pending city approval.
  • A new Bonds Ranch development will bring 829 units of luxury multifamily housing across 55 acres, with the first phase of 396 apartment units breaking ground in October and estimated to be move-ready in 2027. HPI Partner Tim Shaughnessy called the Bonds Ranch area a “trophy location,” with leasing expected to range from $1,400 to $2,400 per month for the firm’s first Fort Worth project.
  • The $1.1 billion North City project on 300 acres between I-35W and U.S. 287 continues to take shape alongside earlier arrivals like Pickle City USA, Andretti Indoor Karting and Carvana’s 12-story vending machine. Developer Steve McKeever plans to add a music venue, high-end grocer, park and three apartment complexes to North City, including the $45 million Resia North City apartment complex with 464 units under construction.
  • A 337-acre Bonds Ranch Road development may bring single-family residential and commercial space near the intersection of Blue Sky Drive and West Bonds Ranch Road, with Dallas-based LJA Engineering as the applicant.
