"A Trammell Crow Co. subsidiary has begun construction on a mixed-use development in Garland.

Crow's High Street Residential and USAA Real Estate Co. are building the 5th Street Crossing at Garland Station, adjacent to DART's light rail station in downtown Garland."

Yesterday I was reading apartment newsletters, today mixed-use case studies. Sustainability has been on my mind quite a bit lately so my cruise around the Highstreet Residential Site was most interesting.

In addition, I found an interesting release on some info that scooted by me:

CARROLLTON, TX—The City of Carrollton has selected High Street Residential, a wholly owned subsidiary of Trammell Crow Company, as the exclusive master developer to spearhead private investment for three Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) areas. These areas include the Downtown Carrollton Transit Center District, the Trinity Mills Transit Center District and the North Carrollton Station Development Site. Each site, which anchors existing or planned DART rail lines, is expected to feature sustainable, vibrant, livable districts with a variety of high-density residential, office, and retail uses and enhanced pedestrian amenities.

These guys are definitely active. Check them out and get connected. I need to make sure we get them to represent at the Developer Conference in October.
