Whitesboro ISD / Masterplan Site Development

Whitesboro ISD has registered a new construction project for the Masterplan Site Development at 1 Bearcat Drive in Whitesboro. The filing, listed on record as "Whitesboro ISD / Masterplan Site Development," describes a 125,000 sq ft site development effort with an estimated cost of $17,000,000. This project involves public funds and public land, placing it within the district’s broader capital improvement plans.

The scope of work covers site infrastructure across the entire property. This includes the construction of parking lots, roads, sidewalks, and signage. WRA Architects serves as the design firm of record for this development. The registered accessibility specialist for the project is Blair Baker. The work is classified as new construction, focusing on the foundational elements that support future building use.

Project Context and Scale

At $17,000,000, this project’s estimated cost is above the county median for new construction filings in Grayson County. The scheduled build window of 397 days is longer than the county median of 242 days. The cost per square foot stands at $136, which is close to the county median of $135. Whitesboro ISD has five other TDLR-registered projects totaling $93,500,000, including the Whitesboro High School Additions and the Whitesboro Childhood Center. WRA Architects has six other registered projects totaling $31,755,086, including work in Denison and Mansfield.

Census estimates for ZIP 76273 indicate a population of about 11,019 and a median household income of $80,244. The area is predominantly owner-occupied, with a median home value of $234,400. Grayson County unemployment stood at 4.4 percent in August 2026, lower than a year earlier. These figures provide context for the local economic environment surrounding the development.

Current Status

TDLR completed plan review in May 2025, and construction was scheduled to finish in July 2026. The TDLR status is listed as Review Complete. However, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The completion date on the filing has passed, but the lack of a final inspection record means the project’s physical status remains unverified in the official database.
