Building a Legacy From the cover

The big picture

Legacy by Hillwood Communities Homes start in the low $400,000s and climb to $1.5 million, Hillwood ocials said.

Sitting on the southern border of Friendswood and League City is Legacy, a 700-plus acre master- planned community, slated to bring about 1,630 homes to the area. With homes starting in the low $400,000s and climbing to $1.5 million, city ocials said Legacy is slated to bring a “huge” economic impact. Legacy is developed by Hillwood, a Perot company behind two other Greater Houston communities, Pomona and Valencia in Manvel. Russell Bynum, Hillwood’s senior vice president and general manager of Hillwood Communities in the Greater Houston area, said the decision to build in League City stemmed from wanting to build within Clear Creek ISD’s boundaries and its proximity to key areas for residents. “Proximity to entertainment areas, employment centers and commercial destinations played a big role in our desire to be in League City,” Bynum said.
