North Shore Employment Center

As a part of Realize Rowlett 2020 Phase III, the Rowlett City Council authorized the North Shore Planning Initiative in 2013. Located along the PGBT, North Shore offers over 1,000 acres of vacant land. As a part of the process, the City commissioned a marketing plan and target industry analysis to identify potential targets for the development. Staff is currently working in partnership with land owners to market their properties to national site selectors, and commercial realtors as well as targeting master developers to create a cohesive project for the area.

Village of Rowlett Downtown

Rowlett was one of the original Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) member cities and opened its first station in 2012 on the Blue Line (Downtown Rowlett station), providing an optimal location for urban transit-oriented developments. The station created an opportunity for unique Transit-Oriented Developments, and the City created a Downtown Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone to help spur additional development by providing needed infrastructure improvements. For more information on how the Village of Rowlett Downtown came to be, check out https://www.ci.rowlett.tx.us/FAQ.aspx, #7. Village of Rowlett Downtown. The building at 3901 Main St. will be redeveloped into retail and/or restaurant space and there will be a new two-story construction at 3913 Main St., doubling the retail/restaurant space currently in the Village of Rowlett Downtown. The City began the reconstruction of Main Street between the Roundabout and the President George Bush Turnpike Spring 2019. The project includes rebuilding the street, sidewalks, curbs, drainage systems, landscaping, and lighting.
