Welcome, and thank you for visiting Downtown Sherman online. Ours is a unique urban community located less than an hour north of the DFW metroplex. As Sherman’s city center and county seat of Grayson County, the neighborhood has a long and rich past, and we are now looking forward to a bright future as a sustainable mixed-use community. Our neighborhood already boasts a mix of retail shops, restaurants and cafés, arts and sports venues, professional services and opportunities for urban living. In addition, we are currently in the early stages of a full-scale development plan for the neighborhood. Whether you are a Sherman resident or are from out of town, a prospective business owner or developer, this site should offer you the resources you need. Browse the site and join us in our celebration of Sherman Downtown Now!

Let’s splash this place with color!

Over 35 downtown businesses participated in our first annual potted plant contest! The enthusiasm and creativity of many of the downtown merchants and businesses really impressed the judges. Click the image to the left to learn who the winners are!

Howdy Neighbor!

Downtowners! Join us the third Thursday of each month for a mix and mingle hosted by a different downtown business. On August 19th Gallery Frames and Art Center will host at 5:30 PM. They’ll have snacks, but remember to BYOB!
