900 Acres of Master-Planned Community “Goodland” Annexed into the City of Grand Prairie
Published August 20, 2025
New Infrastructure and Community Amenities Set the Stage for Regional Connectivity and Growth
GRAND PRAIRIE, TEXAS (August 20, 2025)Provident, a Dallas-based privately held real estate and investment firm, announced today the successful annexation of about 900 acres, a sizeable portion of its total 5,000-acre master-planned community known as Goodland, into the City of Grand Prairie. The move marks a major milestone in the development of this transformative project.
The annexation paves the way for full city services—including police, fire protection, water, and sewer—to be extended to this newly incorporated portion of Goodland. The annexed area will serve as a cornerstone of the community’s upcoming phases, offering mixed-use residential development and several hundred acres reserved for a community hub and future town center.
“We value our public-private partnership with the City of Grand Prairie and our shared vision for Goodland,” says Rylan Yowell, Managing Director at Provident. “Together, we’re making important progress toward advancements that benefit both the community and its people.”
A Vibrant Residential and Civic Hub
Portions of this annexation are planned to include:
Montessori school
Church
Wedding and event venue
Coffee shop
Diverse mix of attainable and higher-density homes
Dedicated active adult neighborhood(s)
Regional Parks & Hike/Bike Trails
“These elements aim to foster a walkable, amenity-rich community that supports a variety of lifestyles and price points further expanding the offerings within Goodland,” adds Yowell.
A dedicated area central to the long-term vision in Goodland will be developed into a future town center, envisioned as a connected core with civic and recreational uses planned in collaboration with the City of Grand Prairie.
Infrastructure Driving Growth
The driving force behind the annexation and development momentum is the upcoming completion of Goodland Parkway, a major thoroughfare scheduled to open by the end of the year. The Parkway will provide critical access into the heart of Goodland and connect to future commercial, retail, and civic services.
Designed as a key regional connector, Goodland Parkway links Highway 360 and Highway 287, with future extensions planned to reach Highway 67 at the southern boundary of Provident’s massive land holdings and Grand Prairie’s city limits. The project is the result of a strategic collaboration between Provident and the City, both of which have made significant capital contributions to the roadway’s development.
“This is an important step toward a strong, balanced future for Grand Prairie. We are not just growing, we are growing in a way that strengthens the community we all call home,” says Grand Prairie Mayor Ron Jensen.
