F Ron Smith

I am a long-time Southern Nevadan and amazed and proud of how much the area has developed in the past few decades. Since moving to the City of Henderson and building my first McDonald’s Franchise in 1996, I have grown our organization to 13 restaurants throughout the Las Vegas market. My son, Christopher, oversees much of the operations, which truly makes it a family business. I am so fortunate to be living and working here and to be an integral part of the developing Henderson story.

Currently, I am working on an ambitious project, called theBLOQparq (tBp). It is a master-planned, walkable community that will provide affordable residential living spaces, adaptable-use office and retail spaces as well as restaurant options. To truly make it a community like no other in this market, throughout the project we are integrating multiple recreational areas including parks, event spaces (public and private), an amphitheater, clubhouse and rooftop pool.

We are building this to be a destination for residents and visitors alike; to create a unique city lifestyle and amenities for those who want to be a part of a diverse, thriving community. This is no ordinary mixed-use facility.

Our platform and vision for creating theBLOQparq is to fulfill what we feel is the current need for affordable, build-to-suit living and workspaces, for purchase or rent. I am working with the City of Henderson, which is in a major redevelopment phase and is incorporating a State-sanctioned Opportunity Zone adjacent to theBLOQparq.

From my experience and success in business, I felt the need to give back to our close-knit community. Reaching out and encouraging the development of incubator entrepreneurs through our hands-on mentoring and counseling program is a significant motivator for developing theBLOQparq.

theBLOQparq is also committed to creating opportunities for homeowners and businesses through our sustainable, economical building and construction designs; utilizing spaces that allow for lower barriers-to-entry. The program will assist businesses and entrepreneurs to follow their aspirations to build their own brands and realize their dreams.
I am excited to embark on this new and exciting phase of my life and invite you to join us at theBLOQparq.

tBp theBLOQparqSincerely,

F. Ronald Smith
