Texas Live! will set a new standard in sports-anchored developments and will cement Arlington as one of the premier sports, entertainment and hospitality destinations in the country for decades to come. The project will bring over 3,000 new jobs and 3 million new visitors to Arlington upon its opening in 2018.
