The Haggard family, owners of the land site, along with future building tenant, First United Bank, and developer Cawley Partners are entering into a joint venture to develop The Parkwood. “The Haggard family is pleased to be partnering with Cawley Partners and First United Bank to bring this quality project to Plano,” said Rutledge Haggard.

Designed by Gensler, Parkwood offers spacious floor plates, a fully equipped fitness center, and convenient access to the Dallas North Tollway. “The Parkwood development is an extremely attractive building, offering brand new office space in a clean atmosphere, not to mention its proximity to area restaurants, retail, and entertainment,” said Bill Cawley, chairman and CEO of Cawley Partners.
