Spanish for, "the hills," Las Colinas is a 12,000-acre master planned community known worldwide for its quality as a major business center.

The community's central location between Dallas and Fort Worth as well as the DFW International Airport makes it an attractive location for business and commerce.

Founded in 1972 by cattle rancher Ben Carpenter, the area was originally known as El Ranchito de Las Colinas, "the little ranch of the hills," and was a weekend getaway for the Carpenter family.

A part of Irving, Las Colinas is home to 2,000-plus corporations and the global headquarters of five Fortune 500 companies, with a taxable base of more than $7 billion.
    
As a superb example of a high quality, master-planned community of balanced commercial, residential and environmental land uses, Las Colinas is the recipient of an Urban Land Institute Award for Excellence.

The community has recently entered a second building boom with over 22 million square feet of office space, three private country clubs and four championship golf courses, all surrounded by gated communities.  The Irving Convention Center at Las Colinas is the most recent addition to the development. 

This area of Irving is also home to the only 5 Diamond resort in Texas, the Four Seasons Resort and Club. It is here that you can catch the HP Byron Nelson Championship.

Las Colinas is also home to the world's largest equestrian sculpture, the bronze Mustangs of Las Colinas, which gallop across the granite stream in Williams Square.

The Las Colinas Flower Clock is located at the intersection of John Carpenter Freeway and O'Conner Road. This unique outdoor floral clock is seasonally replanted and resembles similar clocks found across Europe.
