Downtown Corinth

Welcome to the Downtown Corinth page this page will detail our current and future successes of downtown developments. 

Downtown Corinth is of significant importance to the City and surrounding area. Downtown investment creates a unique and vibrant gathering place for both locals and visitors, creates jobs, generates tax revenue, improves the quality of life, and breathes energy into the entire city, including nearby neighborhoods and districts. Community input and plans created from that input have called for a place that is welcoming, vibrant, and bustling with activity and a place that offers people of all ages an opportunity to enjoy a variety of unique shopping experiences, restaurants, entertainment, recreational spaces, employment, and multi-generational housing options. Together, these elements enable residents of all ages and preferences to stay and thrive in their own complete community and provide a vibrant central place that attracts visitors.

 

Downtown Corinth is a Trail-Oriented Development (TrOD) that capitalizes on its location along the regional Denton Katy Trail, allowing trail users to connect from regional greenbelt trails such as the Lake Ray Roberts greenbelt to the local mountain biking trail network along Lynchburg Creek near City Hall. The new trail head offers amenities and has captured the untapped market, further activating downtown as a regional destination for outdoor enthusiasts and residents seeking an active and interesting lifestyle.

Developments at Downtown

Completed Developments:

Agora Park

Agora Park opened in June 2024. The park is a catalyst project envisioned by city leaders to create the unifying central gathering space for Downtown Corinth. The park is drawing thousands of both local residents and those from the surrounding area for programmed events and daily use.

Walton Ridge:

Welcome in the new Walton Ridge development. Walton Ridge brings in 164 townhome-style lofts located on the east side of downtown Corinth to accommodate 450 residents.  This project provides, housing within a 15 walk to Agora park and the greater downtown area. Walton Ridge represents a key step in Corinth’s ongoing efforts to promote urban living and support a vibrant, accessible city center.

Heyward Phase 1 

Heyward Phase 1 is the initial stage of a two-phase project designed to introduce high-density multi-family housing into the heart of downtown Corinth. This first phase includes 236 residential units and is expected to bring approximately 650 new residents to the area. As a major step in expanding downtown’s residential base, Heyward Phase 1 supports the city’s broader vision of a more vibrant, populated, and connected urban core.

Current Developments 

 The Brookman (Formely Greenway trails) 

Along the northern end of N Corinth St, a street envisioned to be a central Main St for Downtown Corinth, is Greenway Trials. The Greenway Trails developments are town homes are currently under construction to provide a road connection with a 17 minute walk to the nearby Agora park passing through future development sites, NCTC, and existing businesses. The 14 acre development will include 121 for-rent townhouse to add an estimated 330 persons to the Downtown region.

What is being proposed

Murillo Market

Plans were recently approved to construct a mixed-use community that will bring in 50 townhouse units with retail at the corner of Shady Shores and North Corinth Street. The development continues to add a population to within a walkable distance to Agora Park, NCTC, and other upcoming developments.

The Belton

This development will provide a 4-story senior housing development with 196 multi-family housing units south of Corinth Parkway. The complex will host private amenities including a pool, pickle ball court and a dog park while being within a 10-minute walk to Agora Park and nearby existing retail shops.

City Center

The nearest lot located directly north from Agora Park will host a mixed-use retail development that will host the development will provide a walkable space connecting to future developments across North Corinth Street and Agora Park serving as a commercial and residential hub for future downtown development. The development will host 30,000 sqft of retail development on the first floor with 300 multifamily apartments above. Construction is anticipated to begin within 9-12 months (As of July 2025).

North Corinth Street

North Corinth serves as the major thoroughfare for the upcoming downtown district that will be the commercial and living heart of the city of Corinth. The road connects to Corinth Parkway, Agora park, NCTC and the current Greenway Trails development.  For our goals we will focus on developing public private partnerships to redevelop vacant land along the corridor, restripe N Corinth St to provide for onstreet parking in lieu of a center turn lane, and as developments occur along the corridor, require streetscape to include street trees and furnishings, and wide pedestrian sidewalks.

Before:                                                                                                   After:

Corinth Parkway

Corinth Parkway serves as an entrance from commuters through I-35 with existing uses consist of City Hall, Commons at Agora Park, a 3 story office building, retail strip centers, assisted living center and pre-school. Vacant land at the gateway to Corinth Parkway east of I-35E is owned by the City and EDC. An opportunity exists to develop vacant land with mixed-use buildings to include retail uses at the ground level. Additionally, under developed properties may present the opportunity to redevelop to provide additional retail and create a building line and streetscape that is in keeping with the Downtown vision.

Before                                                                                                   After

Old Highway 77/I-35E Corridor

Old Highway 77 is a largely undeveloped street with no curb/gutter or sidewalks. This area offers an opportunity for the visibility of I-35E as well as potential connectivity and walkability to N Corinth St and the other parts of Downtown Corinth. As opportunities arise to develop vacant land or redevelop properties to active uses consistent with a mixed-use walkable downtown, partner with property owners and developers to implement developments.
