Project Background
Dockside at Harbor Point is a collaboration of public and private efforts resulting in a retail/restaurant development located at the southeast corner of Interstate 30 and Bass Pro Road on the western shore of Lake Ray Hubbard. The development includes a Bass Pro Shop with courtesy docks, nine restaurants, a small amount of retail shop space, and a future hotel to be separately owned.
Work on Dockside at Harbor Point began in 1999. The City of Garland was seeking an initiative that would spur economic growth within the I-30 corridor. After much consideration and negotiation, the City and Harvest Partners developed the concept of Harbor Point. The $47.4 million project, located along 900 feet of shoreline on 28-acres of land, includes:
- A 120,000 SF Bass Pro Shop incorporating a Bass Pro owned 5,000-8,000 SF restaurant and exhibit center;
- 5 shoreline freestanding restaurant pad-sites plus the Bass Pro restaurant, Islamorada Fish Company;
- 3 pad sites with frontage to I-30;
- 18,000 square feet of inline retail / restaurant space;
- Courtesy dock with up to 78 slips for local boaters to access the development;
- A boardwalk with landscaping and views of the lake;
- Parking facilities with outdoor boat storage space.
