Frisco planning officials have given the go ahead to build a multipurpose music and entertainment center on the Dallas North Tollway.

The project will add a public destination facility to Frisco's $5 billion mile.

The 7-acre project — called Music City — will include a 1,000-plus-seat indoor theater, an outdoor stage with 390 seats and a restaurant. It still requires the Frisco City Council's sign off.

"This is the culmination of about three years of work," project architect Charles Hodges told Frisco's city planning and zoning commission. "It's a venue like nothing else we've ever seen.

"We've set it up for every possible opportunity."

The complex would be used for everything from music concerts to wine festivals and corporate events.

"We've set this up so that it is infinitely adaptable," Hodges said.

A large restaurant at the heart of the complex will include both formal and informal dining areas. The concert hall will have VIP reception and seating areas. Out in the courtyard area, there will be small guest kitchens for a revolving group of chefs, Hodges said.

"Those test kitchens act as a food truck on steroids," he said.

A sound wall with graphics will keep noise from bleeding into the surrounding areas and block sound from the tollway.

The tollway site is currently owned by the Frisco Economic Development Corp. which is shepherding the project. Hodges said that Music City is working with a West Coast operator to handle the facility.

Frisco's planning commission gave unanimous approval for the deal.

"I think we have a need for this in our city — this music venue will stand out," said Rob Cox, planning commission chairman. "I think this is a fantastically well done project."

The Frisco Music City site is across the tollway from the Dallas Cowboy's Star complex which includes a variety of restaurants, retail, hotel and sports facilities. And the project is just south of the $2 billion Wade Park mixed-use development, which is facing foreclosure.

If the city council gives final approval, Frisco will join a growing number of North Texas communities that are adding performance venues.

One of the largest is Irving's new Music Factory development which includes a performance theater, retail, restaurant and office space.
