Slightly OT but, how long have you lived around here? I've lived in the area 16yrs and I still am amazed at the sheer growth and development! Particularly right there at the Toyota site. Nebraska Furniture Mart and all of that ginormous development on the South side of 121 between the Tollway and The Colony.
*edit* of course I remember when 121 was a 2 lane road! Now it's a massive 8 lane Tollway.

Pffft...I was living in Plano when the DNT was "finished", ending just past Spring Creek Pkwy. Central was 6 lanes (3 each side) with the worst/shortest entrance ramps. 121? That was just a FM road in the middle of nowhere. For over a decade the pillars for the GB interchange at Central just stood there with nothing else resembling construction really around it. The entirety of N. Dallas, Plano, Allen, Frisco, and McKinney
really blows me away. I spend a lot of time up there even though I live in SA. Actually headed up there again (last visit was Labor Day weekend) in 3 weeks.
