Early work starts on 785-acre Pasco County development

Work on the primary infrastructure has begun on a 785-acre mixed-use development in Pasco County. 

Hines, a Houston development firm, and Tampa based real estate holding company Krusen-Douglas are building Kinfield, as it’s known, at the northeast corner of Interstate 75 and State Road 52. 

When complete, the development will include 3 million square feet of industrial space, 190,000 square feet of commercial space, 500,000 square feet of office space and a 250-room hotel. 

There will also be 1,550 apartments and townhouses and 600 single-family homes.

Hines says the master infrastructure work is expected to be done by the second quarter of next year and that the “project team is actively marketing industrial and commercial parcels as well as planning for multiple types of complimentary residential.” 

The initial work on the project, which was rezoned as a master planned unit development in May 2024, will include roads, utilities and public amenities, including a key segment of the Orange Belt Trail, a 40-mile trailhead within Kinfield. 

(A Hines spokesperson declined to share the cost of the project or on a financing package to help fund the infrastructure work.)
