What's happening in McKinney, and what it does to home values

The stories Ryan Storch has been covering on Instagram that touch McKinney, with the facts he verified for each video.

US 380 is becoming a freeway, and the state is already buying the land.

US 380 · Collin County · September 2026

TxDOT picked the route, called the Blue Alternative: a new freeway that starts at 380 near Coit Road, wraps around the north side of McKinney, and ties back into 380 east of town near New Hope. The state has started buying land along that path, and businesses in the way have already closed. The bypass alone is priced at about $3.27 billion, and the full corridor plan runs closer to $8 billion. TxDOT says construction could start around 2027 if the funding lands, and the adopted plan is a freeway with frontage roads, not a toll road.

$3.27 billion for the bypass alone · 26 homes, 38 businesses sit in the path

What it means for your home: Homes in the path and homes near the new interchanges are about to live two very different stories. Before you buy or sell anywhere near 380, pull up TxDOT's Blue Alignment map and see which side of it you are on.
