Town of Westlake Earns Internationally Prestigious Award | Southlake Style
Page 2 of 24
The Town of Westlake recently won the distinguished Excellence in Economic Development Award
from The Site Selectors Guild (SSG). The Town won the award for its work in bringing the
new Charles Schwab development to Westlake. The Schwab Corporation is currently constructing a
$100 million regional campus at the intersection of Highways 170 and 114 that will bring
approximately 1,200 new employees to the region.
Town manager Tom Brymer accepted the award on Westlake’s behalf at the SSG’s annual conference
in Tucson, Arizona, where economic development professionals from around the world were on hand.
“To win an award like this from such a well-regarded organization like The Site Selectors Guild
speaks volumes about where the Town of Westlake stands nationally in regards to corporate
location,” Brymer said via press release. “It’s not just the Schwab project; it’s the recent expansion by
the Sabre Corporation as well. Couple that with Fidelity Investments and Deloitte University, who
already call Westlake home and you can see how the Town has truly emerged as a financial services
corridor for the Metroplex.”
Schwab purchased the land from Hillwood Properties where they will construct a 500,000-square foot
corporate complex that will be adjacent to a mixed-use development to be developed by Hillwood and
the Howard Hughes Corporation. The plans call for a 200-room hotel and approximately one million
square feet of office and retail space.
“Charles Schwab would not have chosen Westlake for the project, but for the work of Tom’s
team. Tom was the quarterback for the project and excelled at bringing Denton County and the State
of Texas together as strong partners for the Town in support of the project,” said SSG member Larry
Gigerich, who nominated Westlake for the award.

The Guild is widely considered one of the top economic development organizations, not only in the
nation, but internationally as well. SSG is an association of the world’s foremost professional site
selection consultants.
