The opening of the Bell Commercial Business Center (CBC) will house 600 employees, including all Commercial Programs, Global Sales, Customer Support, and Services, and supporting business functions, Supply Chain, Information Technology, Human Resources, and Finance personnel.

The lease by Bell is the first major lease since the sale of the campus. The 40-acre site still includes 6.33 acres of undeveloped land and leasing opportunities for 4333 and 4255 Amon Carter Blvd.
