Join us on July 15, 2026, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM (CDT) for a Lunch & Learn hosted by Millis Construction.
This session, “Deal Spotlight: The Making of Terra Nova,” will feature Hugo Morales, Founder and CEO of Main Square Development, and will take attendees behind the scenes of one of North Texas’ most ambitious master-planned communities.
Located in Terrell, Texas, Terra Nova is a transformative 1,545-acre mixed-use development that will ultimately include approximately 3,600 single-family homes, 1,200 multifamily units, and the vibrant Terra Nova Village town center. With more than $3 billion in planned investment, the project represents a significant milestone in the growth of North Texas.
Hugo will share the story behind the deal—from land assembly and entitlement strategy to vision, partnerships, financing, and execution—offering a candid look at what it takes to bring a community of this scale from concept to reality.
Attendees will gain insight into:
• Land assembly and acquisition strategy
• Entitlement and development planning processes
• Financing and partnership structures
• Challenges and opportunities in large-scale development
• Lessons learned from bringing a master-planned community to market
This session is designed to provide valuable perspective for developers, builders, engineers, planners, and land professionals interested in the business and execution of transformative development projects.
