The Cowboys have "scored the biggest business tenant yet for The Star in Frisco," as Rhode Island-based insurer FM Global is "taking office space on the top two floors of The Star's office building," according to Steve Brown of the DALLAS MORNING NEWS. FM Global, which is one of the world's "largest commercial and industrial property insurers," joins Bank of America and the Cowboys HQ "as tenants in the new building." With FM Global "taking more than 79,000 square feet of the 398,000-square-foot office building," The Star is now "substantially leased." Cowboys Exec VP, COO & Dir of Player Personnel Stephen Jones said, "We just have a little bit more to finish up on the west side. If we had it do over again this thing would be taller -- we probably would have gone for a few more floors." Jones said that the Cowboys' Blue Star Land and developer Lincoln Property Co. are "already working on a second office building at The Star to take advantage of business interest in the mixed-use development." Jones said that like Bank of America, which is leasing 60,000 square feet of offices, FM Global is a "longtime business partner" of the Cowboys. FM Global "provides the football club with property and builders risk insurance." They have done business together since '02. FM Global Senior VP and Western Division Manager Kevin Bradshaw said that the company "looked at several other locations in Frisco before landing at The Star" (DALLAS MORNING NEWS, 8/31).
