Historic Downtown Plano, TX
Despite our city’s tremendous growth, the core of Downtown Plano has remained largely unchanged. A significant number of existing buildings have remained standing since the rebuild after the fire of 1895. Many of the commercial occupants stayed consistent throughout the early 20th century. Until the 1960s, Downtown was the place in Plano to conduct business or do some shopping. During the 1980s, Downtown changed from a traditional business center to a specialty retail district composed of antique stores and gift and clothing boutiques. By the 1990s, the city had begun investing in the revitalization of the historic area by expanding the municipal center and renovating Fire Station #1. In 2002, the DART station at 15th Street began service to Downtown Dallas. Today, Downtown Plano is a vibrant community of performing arts, galleries, event venues, unique shops and restaurants that are independently owned and operated, set against the backdrop of historic buildings, the Plano DART station and beautiful Haggard Park.
