Frisco investing $50 million in the downtown area
Cheney said city officials learned a lot in 2022 duringAdvertisement
“They call their downtown area their 20-year overnight success story,” he said. “And we’re kind of following in their footsteps.”Frisco’s downtown makeover includes taking away street parking on Main Street, giving room for businesses to put in patios and offer more outdoor gathering spaces. Elm Street is being transformed into another major thoroughfare, to expand downtown into multiple blocks. Stop signs on Elm will be removed and flipped to cross streets, allowing for a continuous traffic flow on Elm.
“What that will do is create this other layer of downtown … and you’re going to start to see more businesses pop up,” Cheney said.The old City Hall will eventually become a four-story building, its use as well as a few other city-owned buildings in the area to be determined, Cheney said.Fourth Street will eventually close, making way for the 4th Street Plaza, which will become a community gathering space and allow for a walkable connection between Elm and Main.
