 Ground breaking on the Lakeside Resort in Flower Mound, Texas took place earlier this Spring. The new conference center will be built on Lake Grapevine, located within the Dallas Fort-Worth area and is due to open in Fall 2008 and is joint venture between Benchmark Hospitality International, who will manage the property, and Hines, an international real estate development firm with U.S. headquarters in Houston.
"We are very excited that this property marks our third project with Hines," said Burt Cabanas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Benchmark. "It is superbly located and will be first rate in every way. The resort’s spectacular setting on majestic Lake Grapevine is just minutes from DFW International Airport."
When completed, the 18-story Lakeside Resort will be the tallest structure in Flower Mound and feature four star  resort amenities, magnificent lake views from all 289 guest-rooms, a 25,000-square-foot conference center featuring state-of-the-art meeting space and Benchmark’s signature meeting concierge service. The venue will also include event space, 12,000-square-foot spa and two water-view restaurants. |
