Weatherford downtown is turning into an economic engine for the community. In only three years since Weatherford’s Main Street program launched into full force, our Main Street has generated $10 million in total investment, seen the rehabilitation of 10 buildings and watched the downtown vacancy rate lower from 32 percent to 5 percent.
Thanks to a growing downtown shopping, dining and arts scene, anchored by the iconic Parker County Courthouse and three Historic Districts, more people are visiting than ever before. Weatherford can look to a brighter future thanks to the tremendous work of the Weatherford Historic Commission and the Parker County Heritage Society, and its local partners.
