Movie time at Frisco Square?
Breaking Ground for the New Cinemark!!
I am so excited to announce that according to www.friscoenterprise.com… Friso Square is getting a MOVIE THEATER!!
Grab the popcorn, it looks like Frisco’s getting a movie theatre west of City Hall.
Owner and developer Frisco Square Development is mum, sensitive to tenant timing of the full announcement. But Cinemark’s name is on the permit to clear land, which began Tuesday. Well, technically, the name on some of the paperwork is “CNEW;” however, Cinemark also appears on city records for permits.
City records reflect a project involving “A movie theater and retail/office and hotel on the southwest corner of Frisco Square Blvd. and Church Street. Zoned Planned Development-153- Mixed (PD-153-Mixed). Neighborhood #21.”
Building plans are under review, according to public records at the city’s development services department.
“Their building plans are not yet approved,” said department head John Lettelier. “But engineering has approved them for flatwork (site preparation), which started Tuesday.”
The detailed master plan hanging on the wall at Frisco Square Development’s office shows a movie theatre envisioned on Frisco Square Boulevard at the south end of World Cup Way. The location is marked with a bright red star in a photo taken some months ago during an interview on another topic.
Lettelier said no public meetings or commission reviews of plans are necessary because Frisco Square is zoned as a planned development. City staff can approve plans.
Opening date a bit sketchy, but it could be the summer Movies in the Square just moved a block west.
As for continuing speculation on another movie theatre on the west side of the Dallas North Toll at Main Event, Lettelier said, “There have been no submittals to the city.”
For more on this story, keep an eye on www.friscoenterprise.com and future print editions of The Frisco Enterprise.
A red star highlights the location of a Cinemark movie theatre for which site preparation is underway west of City Hall on Frisco Square Boulevard at the south end of World Cup Way.
Site preparation is easily viewed from area buildings and the Dallas North Tollway.

Frisco Selected As New Host Site For NCAA Division I Football National Championship Game
Frisco Selected As New Host Site For NCAA Division I Football National Championship Game
Great news!!!
According to City of Frisco.com…
FRISCO SELECTED AS NEW HOST SITE FOR
NCAA DIVISION I FOOTBALL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAMEFRISCO, Texas ˆ Frisco is the new host city for the 2010 NCAA Division I
Football Championship game, which will played at Pizza Hut Park on January
7, 2011. The NCAA announced earlier today that the 23,500-seat
multi-purpose stadium will be the host site for the championship game for
the next three years.„Touchdown! We can‚t wait for college football to come to Frisco,‰ said
Mayor Maher Maso. „Frisco is a sports town and a Division I Football
Championship is another chance for sports fans everywhere to not only
experience great football but to also discover all our community has to
offer. We also want to thank folks from all over the country who
supported our bid effort.‰Less than five weeks ago, Frisco launched an online pledge drive inviting
football fans to show their support for the effort to move the
championship games to Pizza Hut Park. Frisco received pledges from people
living in 103 cities throughout Texas and from 17 other states. Frisco
estimated the pledges represented more than 8,000 tickets.
„Pizza Hut Park and Hunt Sports Group couldn‚t be more excited to host the
NCAA Division I Football games,‰ said John Wagner, President, Hunt Sports
Group. „Along with Southland Conference and the City of Frisco, we look
forward to showcasing our venue and our city.‰The local organizing committee consists of the City of Frisco, its
Economic Development Corporation and Convention & Visitors Bureau, Hunt
Sports Group/Pizza Hut Park, the Frisco Chamber of Commerce and Frisco
based Southland Conference.„The Southland Conference is honored and privileged to serve as the host
conference for the NCAA Division I Football Championship Game,‰ said
Southland Commissioner Tom Burnett. „Since beginning the planning process
last August, our Team Frisco local organizing committee has worked
diligently to bring this national championship to Pizza Hut Park. We also
knew from the start our community would support this effort. Given all
the built-in advantages of Frisco and the greater Dallas-Fort Worth
metropolitan area, we always felt confident the NCAA would be attracted to
what we were offering the game.‰Frisco emerged from a pool of several cities that submitted bids to serve
as the host site for the championship games, beginning with the 2010
season.
The championship game will be the culmination of a newly expanded 20-team
championship bracket. As a result of this expansion, the game will be
played a few weeks later than in years past.The Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), formerly known as Division
I-AA, includes the conferences and institutions that compete in the NCAA
Division I Football Championship, in addition to two conferences who
choose not to participate in the football championship, the Ivy League and
the Southwestern Athletic Conference. The FCS embodies a tradition of
excellence through high level competition, student-athlete character and
sportsmanship throughout the regular season and the championship
experience.The decision to award the championship site to Frisco, Texas, was
recommended by the Division I Football Championship Committee and approved
by the Administrative Committee of the Division I Championships/Sports
Management Cabinet.“We are excited about the opportunity for the football championship game
to be played in
Frisco,” said Damani Leech, NCAA director of baseball and football. “With
the quality of bids that were submitted, it was not an easy decision to
make. But we feel the right decision and right place to serve as the site
for the Division I football championship is indeed Frisco.” -
