Commons at Agora - Streets
Corinth Parkway

CORINTH, TX- The Commons at Agora is envisioned to be an iconic gathering space that will inform future mixed-use development on the surrounding properties to create a true downtown district, Agora while serving as a central hub for community activities, events, and festivals. This dynamic space will be defined by exciting shopping, dining, and living opportunities with a local flair. Drawing from its ancient Greek origins, Agora means “marketplace”, and this gathering space will re-imagine the meaning of marketplace by infusing an elevated, modern, Texas-twist that is distinctly Corinth.

Status Updates

December 2023

Project is complete, but the roadways will remain closed to protect workers around the Agora Park area.

 

September 2023

DDM construction has met substantial completion on the roadways.  The punch list includes Spectrum temporary poles, light poles, and vegetation in the area. 

The City Manager has directed the Public Works Staff to install a temporary connection to I-35 from N Corinth St.  This work is currently being engineered to ensure it meets traffic safety.

 

May 2023

DDM construction has installed about 50% of the concrete paving, 100% of the water, 100% of the wastewater & 95% of the drainage infrastructure. Turn lane construction on Corinth Parkway is complete. Awaiting further franchise utility relocations (CoServ, Oncor & Denton Municipal Electric). fine grading for roundabout & northern realignment of N. Corinth St is underway. 

Upcoming heads up: In the near future, the contractor will shut down N. Corinth St at the rail road tracks for the construction of the realignment. The closure of N. Corinth St will hopefully last no more than 45 days. Once the work is complete in the area N. Corinth St will then be connected and detoured to Walton Dr. Ultimately the connection to Corinth Parkway will be complete. This will result in the closure of the rail road crossings for both N. Corinth St and Walton Dr.
