Rosenburg, Texas

5 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 8 ROSENBERG , TE XAS “Some neighborhoods do have larger homes on smaller yards, for those residents who may want fewer yards to maintain.” On the commercial side, the Fort Bend Epicenter is opening in the second half of 2023, offering a one- of-a-kind multipurpose sports and entertainment venue spanning more than 230,000 square feet with a seating capacity of 10,000 in a modern arena setting. The Fort Bend Epicenter, located adjacent to the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds, will also include an open-air pavilion for livestock and other special outdoor events, and a total of five event spaces. Its presence in Rosenberg is expected to attract new visitors to the city year- round, and city officials are actively working to attract a full-service hotel adjacent to the facility. Historically, US 90-A ran through downtown Rosenberg prior to the expansion of US 59, and was the primary source of commerce adjacent to the railroad. Since the expansion, traffic flow has shifted visitors away from their core, something that the city is in the process of rectifying by highlighting the vibrancy of its historic downtown. There are many new locally- owned businesses coming to Rosenberg, including boutique retailers, antique shops and art stores, as well as artisan bakeries, coffee shops, and restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines.
