In 2003 Dickson Partners, a Houston developer, purchased a plot of land from Houston investors.〔 The majority of the purchased land belonged to three families from Houston who, since the 1950s, had owned the land.〔Sarnoff, Nancy. "(Huge residential community taking shape in Greenspoint )." ''Houston Business Journal''. Friday August 1, 2003.
