Cowboys New Headquarters Part of Star In Frisco

This preliminary rendering provided by The Dallas Cowboys shows the teams planned headquarters for DALLAS COWBOYS SCHEDULE Frisco, Texas. The Cowboys are partnering with Omni Hotels & Resorts to develop an upscale hotel on the site shown on the right with a pool. The 300-room hotel will be a key part of the mixed-use development going up around a 12,000-seat indoor stadium and team's practice facility. (AP Photo/Dallas Cowboys) The Associated Press FRISCO, Texas - The planned new Dallas Cowboys headquarters and neighboring development will be called the Star in Frisco. Cowboys officials on Tuesday unveiled the name for the 91- acre mixed-use project that will feature the team's training complex. The site in Frisco, about 30 miles north of Dallas, will also include a 12,000-seat event center, a 300-room Omni Hotel, plus expected residential properties. Ground was broken in August. The Cowboys are expected to move to their new complex in 2016. Frisco is about 20 miles northeast of the team's existing practice facility in Irving. The Cowboys play at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
