The new parking garage in The Rail District is now open. 

The parking garage is part of a more than $80 million redevelopment project, which included reconstructing Main Street, Elm Street and developing the 4th Street Plaza. 

The details: Construction downtown started in July 2024 and is nearing completion later this year. The 4th Street Plaza will be the last piece of the project, which is expected to be completed in August.

The parking garage brings with it five levels with 450 free parking spaces. It is located at the northeast corner of Elm and Third streets.

Area libraries throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area provided space for children and teenagers during the summer. Many offer summer reading programs and other scheduled activities for children and adults.

Allen Public Library
The library is running a summer program for all ages through July 31. The program is broken down by the following age groups: 0 to sixth grade, seventh to 12th grade and adults age 18 and up. Prizes and free books are awarded for preschoolers (ages 0 to 5), elementary school-age kids (kindergarten-sixth grade) and teens (seventh to 12th grade). Adults will be entered into a drawing for one of five prize bags.
