Preston Hollow East Residents Protest Proposed Apartment Development, But Will Transwestern Listen?

Intrepid reporter Emily Toman at the Preston Hollow Advocate posted this video last week of Preston Hollow East Homeowners Association members gathering to protest Transwestern’s proposed development at Preston Road and Northwest Highway.

Since the project first caught the eyes of nearby residents, the scale has been shaved from 296 to 225 units. Still, residents believe that the scope of the proposed luxury apartment development will add a tremendous amount of traffic to an already congested intersection.

The biggest concern is how an influx of people and cars might affect the often gridlocked stretch along Northwest Highway, possibly prompting drivers to cut through the neighborhoods. Neighbors fear that, if approved, this development would be the first of more big developments to come to that high-profile area.
