From Frisco’s earliest days, The Rail District has been an important gathering place, particularly as a marketplace for farmers and artisans to launch their businesses. The Rail District is Frisco’s historic downtown, comprised of the area surrounding Main Street, from First Street to North/South County Road. This safe, walkable neighborhood is full of vibrant local shops, restaurants, breweries and cafes. Construction is underway on several projects to reimagine the Frisco Rail District experience. While traffic and parking is altered during construction, the Rail District restaurants and stores remain open and waiting for visits.
