Because it is only the second year of a decade-long development plan, it is hard to imagine what the 2,400-acre Towne Lake master-planned community will look like when completed.
But developer Caldwell Companies has created an interactive kiosk in the community's welcome center, 9214 W. Bridgeport Pass Circle, to illustrate the scope of what is to come on that property that stretches from U.S. 290 to West Road along Barker-Cypress Road.
The centerpiece of the community is a 350-acre recreational lake that is under construction. About half of that lake will be completed at the end of this year. When finished, there will be 14 miles of shoreline. Randy Young, Caldwell Companies' director of operations and land development, said it will be the fourth-largest in the Houston region behind Conroe, Clear Lake and Lake Houston.

The Woodlands has its Waterway. Now, say developers of a new community in northwest Houston, Houstonians who are tired of the city's nonstop traffic also will be able to take a quick boat ride to visit their friends and family.
Towne Lake, a 2,400-acre community planned by Caldwell Watson Real Estate Group in the Cypress-Fairbanks area, will feature a 320-acre lake with connecting waterways allowing residents to travel via boat.
Although lake communities have become popular with developers in the past five to 10 years, "a community that allows residents to travel by boat has not really been done in the Houston area," according to Fred Caldwell, CEO of Caldwell Watson.
