In 1973, Fox and Jacobs (F&J), a Dallas-based residential land developer, purchased approximately 2,500 acres of land on the eastern shore of Lake Lewisville and south of Eastvale for a housing development.
The name The Colony was chosen because F&J felt a strong sense of kinship with Texas’ early developers and also to memorialize the spirit of Peters Colony providing a new way of life - a goal Fox and Jacobs wanted their new development to share, as well.
The Colony is now home to the Grandscape mixed use development which hosts Nebraska Furniture Mart (the largest furniture store in Texas), Top Golf, vast amounts of eateries, theaters, go karting, and more.
