When you come into RR, its difficult to find the center of town and when you do, its insignificant. Main actually becomes 620 at I35 just a few blocks away so the traffic flow through the Mays and Main intersection is not pedestrian friendly. With historic mansions directly to the east and I35 to the west, it will be very difficult to come up with a plan that will give it the kind of DT feel like, say Georgetown has. With the plans for developement at 79 and Mays all but cancelled, I can only wonder if any of this gets underway any time soon. They are making a century's old water tower their main focal point, tells me how little they have to work with.
