“Grateful to have been a part of this project with Renfro Development LP, from its design to construction and tenant finish-out.”
— Justin Bond

Community objective

The City of Burleson acquired the property to encourage development that complements Mayor Vera Calvin Plaza, brings people to Old Town by day, night, and on weekends, and improves walkability and parking downtown.

The work

Working with City of Burleson Economic Development, the Renfro Development team delivered new retail and restaurant space on the plaza, carried from design through construction and tenant finish-out. Guided by community input, the City salvaged bricks from the original building so residents could keep a piece of the past, and the new building mirrors a historic Main Street storefront.

Result

Once an eyesore, the site is now a downtown destination for dining, shopping, and offices, and it won the 2024 Texas Downtown President’s Award for Best New Construction.

Lakewood Drive

Burleson · CR 1016 to FM 1902

Community objective

Lakewood Drive is planned as a four-lane divided arterial on the city’s thoroughfare plan and serves as the primary access, or “gateway,” to Hooper Business Park as development grows in Burleson and its extraterritorial jurisdiction.

The work

Roughly 1.5 miles of arterial roadway improvements with 10-foot sidewalks on each side, delivered through collaboration among private developers, the City of Burleson, and its Economic Development Corporation.

Result

The connection to FM 1902 is open to traffic, with street lighting in place and landscaping and irrigation to follow. In 2025, the City Council officially designated the extension from CR 1016 to FM 1902 as Lakewood Drive.
