    Creatives in Cahoots

    This McKinney coworking space may be the artsiest in Dallas

    Several innovative coworking spaces call Dallas home, but newly opened Creating in Cahoots fills a different void in the market on two accounts. First, the coworking media studio caters to, as the name suggests, creatives. Second, it’s located in McKinney.

    Founded by Brian Pierce and two friends, Steven Rice and Jordan Hess, Creating in Cahoots opened in late May at 1827 W. Louisiana St. Pierce, a veteran of the advertising world, enjoyed collaborating with other creatives so much during the development of his web show, Seat Time, that he decided to create a coworking space for anyone who uses a unique medium to accomplish a goal.

    “We wanted to do more than build a network of people who collaborate,” Pierce says. “We wanted a physical space for innovative workshops and brainstorming — a place where people can come together and flesh out ideas.”

    An idea like CIC might not raise any eyebrows in Dallas, but for a suburb like McKinney, it’s a novel concept. A concept, Pierce says, that McKinney needs, thanks to the town's many creators.

    “McKinney has a bitchin’ artist community,” Pierce says. “Not only do I live here and love it, but I also hate driving to Dallas to take workshops. Now I don’t have to.”

    Prospective members submit basic information online before being allowed to tour the renovated bank building just west of downtown McKinney. The 2,442-square-foot space accommodates 30 in open seating, eight desks, and two enclosed office spaces at a time. Members pay $100 per month for open seating, $300 for a desk, and $500 or $750 (depending on the size) for an office. Studio memberships, hourly studio rentals, and hourly conference room rentals are also available.

    And while CIC isn’t exactly turning away say, tech entrepreneurs or event planners, it hopes to attract graphic designers, photographers, writers, visual artists, and the like with benefits such as workshops and a rentable photography studio.

    Members and nonmembers can rent the photo studio by the hour and enroll in workshops on subjects like marketing photography tutorials or an intro to 3D printing. Mentorship from an attorney is available for members seeking advice on digital laws and copyrights.

    But even those who don’t need a coworking space can visit during a bimonthly art gallery opening. Wall murals within the coworking office rotate every two months to feature local visual art in the style of a pop-up art gallery. Fort Worth-based graffiti artist Sabrina Hart and chalk artist Kacey Dowd from Chalk of the Town have murals on display in the building until mid-July.

    “This space is for the people who don’t want to high-five their cat when they make something cool happen,” Pierce says. “They want a community of collaboration, and we’re making it happen.”

    Coworking space Creating in Cahoots in McKinney features a rotating wall mural such as this one by Fort Worth-based graffiti artist Sabrina Hart.

    Dallas ranks No. 1 city in U.S. for corporate HQ relocations

    Dallas' inflation has cooled off after it was last saddled with the highest inflation rate nationally in January 2024.

    More corporations are choosing to relocate their headquarters to Dallas-Fort Worth than any other place in the United States.

    A recent analysis by commercial real estate services company CBRE reveals DFW was the No. 1 metro for corporate headquarters relocations from 2018 to 2024. In those six years, the area attracted 100 new corporate headquarters.

    DFW is followed by Austin (81 relocations), Nashville (35), Houston and Phoenix (31 each), and Denver (23).

    CBRE’s list encompasses public announcements from companies across various sizes and industries about relocating their corporate headquarters within the U.S. According to the study, reasons cited by companies for moving their headquarters include:

    • Access to lower taxes
    • Availability of tax incentives
    • Proximity to key markets
    • Ability to support hybrid work

    “Corporations now view headquarters locations as strategic assets, allowing for adaptability and faster reaction to market changes,” said CBRE.

    Among the high-profile companies that moved their headquarters to the Dallas area from 2018 to 2024 are:

    • Charles Schwab financial services company
    • AECOM construction firm
    • McKesson healthcare company

    Notably, CBRE itself moved its global HQ from San Francisco to Dallas in 2020.

    In February, Yum! Brands revealed it would relocate the global fried chicken chain KFC from its current headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky to Plano. The latest relocation announcement came June 19, when California-based hair care brand John Paul Mitchell Systems said it would move its headquarters to the Dallas area.

    According to CBRE, California (particularly the San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles areas) lost the most corporate HQs in 2024, with 17 companies announcing relocations — 12 of them to Texas. Also last year, Texas gained nearly half of all state-to-state relocations.

    In March, Site Selection magazine awarded Texas its 2024 Governor’s Cup, resulting in 13 consecutive wins for the state with the most corporate relocations and expansions.

    CBRE explained that the trend of corporate HQ relocations reflects the desire of companies to seek new environments to support their goals and workforce needs.

    “Ultimately, companies are seeking to establish themselves in locations with potential for long-term success and profitability,” CBRE said.
