The Colony: Lake Lewisville's South Shore and the Grandscape Retail Development
The Colony sits on a peninsula jutting into Lake Lewisville in southern Denton County. The city was planned from the ground up in the early 1970s by the Fox and Jacobs residential developer, who bought approximately 2,000 acres of former lakefront farmland and laid out a suburban grid. Incorporation followed in 1977, with Nelson Nelson elected as the first mayor. The population crossed 10,000 by 1990 and over 45,000 by the mid-2020s.
Lake Lewisville forms much of the city's western and northern borders. The 29,592-acre reservoir was completed in 1955 and serves as both a water supply and one of the busiest recreational lakes in North Texas. Stewart Creek Park, Sunset Bay Park, and other shoreline parks provide access to the water within city limits.
Grandscape, a 433-acre mixed-use development on the city's eastern side, opened in phases starting in 2017. The project includes Nebraska Furniture Mart (among the largest furniture stores in the United States by square footage), Scheels sporting goods, and the 11-story GrandLiving apartment complex. The development added substantially to the city's sales tax base and drew visitors from across the Metroplex.
