NexPoint Envisions a $3 Billion Life Sciences Campus in Plano

Plano leaders and NexPoint are holding early discussions on the potential for a public-private partnership to turn the massive vacant former Electronic Data Systems headquarters campus into a biotech hub.

The concept is to create lab and manufacturing spaces that attract leading researchers in gene and cell therapy, providing facilities and amenities for biotech and pharmaceutical firms at all stages of development. Land and additional properties totaling about 4 million square feet would be developed in phases to create a life sciences district covering 135 total acres.
