$6B Preston Harbor project expected to jolt population, economy of Texoma

“A huge new community planned for Denison could supercharge its population growth and fundamentally transform its economic landscape.

Preston Harbor is slated to eventually have around 7,500 luxury homes. That could attract as many as 20,000 residents, Mayor Janet Gott said. The city’s current population is just under 30,000.

The community has been in the works for years and is spearheaded by Craig International Inc. The effort got a fresh boost in January, when the real estate development firm announced it purchased more than 3,100 acres along Lake Texoma.“
