Dillard’s to open at Rayzor Ranch Town Center

Denton, Texas -- RED Development announced it will bring Dillard’s department store to Rayzor Ranch Town Center, the new, open-air retail and entertainment destination now under development in Denton, Texas.



Dillard’s, being planned as a 126,000-sq.-ft. store, is the first anchor department store named for the new project since RED became an owner and assumed the management of the property in 2010.



Progress at the adjacent retail property – the 800,000-sq.-ft. Rayzor Ranch Marketplace – has been significant in 2012: This year RED announced Kohl’s, Famous Footwear, Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store, and Petco, all slated to open in 2013. These retailers will join the property’s already open Sam’s Club and Walmart Supercenter, among other retailers and restaurants.



RED is developing two complementary retail properties – Rayzor Ranch Marketplace and Rayzor Ranch Town Center – both part of the master-planned, 400-acre mixed-use Rayzor Ranch development in Denton, 35 miles north of Dallas-Fort Worth.



“Dillard’s is very pleased to be the cornerstone of Rayzor Ranch Town Center,” said William Dillard II, CEO. “The project RED is creating – all open-air with great design and a wonderful experience for shoppers – is exactly where Dillard’s wants to be in this attractive, high-growth market.”



Current plans for Rayzor Ranch Town Center call for a 600,000-sq.-ft. regional shopping destination at the intersection of I-35 and U.S. 380 in the heart of Denton. In addition to retail, the new outdoor project will feature gathering spaces, lush landscaping and other amenities.
