Dallas-based Brinker International, the restaurant company behind Chili’s Grill & Bar and Maggiano’s Little Italy, will soon move to Cypress Waters. Billingsley Co. will build a 216k SF, four-story build-to-suit project in Cypress Waters’ anchor called The Sound.

Brinker will be the first waterside office within The Sound when it opens in late 2018 or early 2019. Brinker will be moving about 500 employees from the office it has occupied since the 1980s on LBJ Freeway near Hillcrest Road.
