Using structural steel to define and highlight the major spaces, the mayor of Frisco, likened the complex to a trip to the airport or opera. Defining the central circulation path, a 1,550' long sloping and curling steel roof structure spans the entire spine of the complex. Constructed of tension supported steel rod "king post" trusses resting on angled clerestory tube trusses, the roof structure undulates along the spine.

Secondary spaces are defined by unique roof forms supported by a variety of truss systems, such as tension ring and bicycle wheel trusses. An innovative winged single-truss pedestrian bridge and fan truss mark the main entrance. This two story, 947,000 SF regional retail mall with a 196,000 SF 3rd floor cinema was recognized with an Engineering Award of Excellence by the American Institute of Steel Construction AISC.
