Grapevine Main

Grapevine, Texas

Architexas designed a new Rail Station located at a prominent site on Main Street in downtown Grapevine, serving the TEX Rail commuter rail line, on the historic Cotton Belt Railroad line and adjacent to the restored historic Cotton Belt Depot and the Grapevine Heritage Center. The mixed-use building serves as a gateway to Historic Downtown Grapevine from the South. The design references grand train stations and looks to the history of Grapevine, complementing the existing historical preservation and vision of the City’s downtown.

Extensive historical research and meetings with the City Council and staff were undertaken to develop a design that encompasses the vision for the project and adapted into a design that provides for a community accessible building fronting a significant public plaza, grand train hall, meeting space, a retail market, and 150 room boutique hotel. A 400 car parking garage and bus service for commuters was integrated into the design in an architecturally compatible manner.
