Oak Ridge North Breaks Ground on Mixed-Use Plaza District

Oak Ridge North, Texas, celebrated a milestone: the ground was broken on its Plaza District, a mixed-use development envisioned as a new core for the city.

The plan covers over eight acres of city-owned property. At its heart: a new City Hall, surrounded by retail, dining, walkable streets, and a central 8,000-square-foot green space. Developers are partnering with identity architects and city economic development to ensure the district becomes a civic and social anchor.

This move sends a clear message: growth in Oak Ridge North isn’t going to be suburban sprawl. It’s going to be about density, walkability, and mixing civic and private life. The Plaza District is designed to connect families, small businesses, and community events in a compact footprint.
