Development Details and Design

Northland Developments (Grapevine), Inc is the owner of record for this private, privately funded venture. The design firm of record is Studio Red Dot, which has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $48,700,000 across Texas, including developments in Anna, Aubrey, San Antonio, and Celina. The scope of work is strictly new construction, not a renovation of an existing structure. The project is situated on private land for private use, distinguishing it from public infrastructure or municipal developments. With a cost of $250 per square foot, the project exceeds the Tarrant County median of $120 per square foot for similar filings, reflecting the premium nature of the hotel brand and its location.

The construction timeline is substantial, with a scheduled build window of 731 days. This duration is longer than the Tarrant County median of 214 days for new construction projects. The project was registered with TDLR in October 2026, and plan review is pending. Construction start is listed for November 2026, with completion targeted for November 2028. This extended timeline allows for the complex structural and interior work required for a 221-room hotel, including the installation of accessibility features mandated by the TABS program. The status of the project is Project Registered, indicating it is in the early stages of the regulatory and construction process.

The location in Grapevine is part of ZIP code 76051, which has a population of about 50,514 and a median household income of $111,193. The area features an even mix of owner- and renter-occupied housing, with a median owner-occupied home value of $467,800. This demographic profile suggests a stable residential base that may support local hospitality demand. The Tarrant County labor market shows an unemployment rate of 4.6 percent higher than a year earlier, which may influence the local hiring pool for the construction phase. The project’s scale and cost position it as a significant addition to the local commercial landscape, potentially impacting the hospitality sector in the North Texas region.
