In 1986, a portion of N. Commerce Street between Exchange Ave. and Stockyards Blvd was closed to create a pedestrian walkway for the Stockyards and the area was renamed Rodeo Plaza. Removable bollards along with other enhancements were added, however, the area still looked like a street and did not encourage pedestrian traffic.

The Project included:

• Beautiful new Gateway at the south end of the Plaza near Exchange Avenue with Antique Pipe Bollards to restrict vehicular traffic, but permit pedestrian access
• Refurbished, signature Gateway at the north end of the Plaza on Stockyards Boulevard with addition of gates and enhancements to the arch
• An attractive, accessible Gazebo
• An enlarged Ride-Out Arena, with a new cover, pipe fence and viewing arcade
• Improved Landscaping
• New Light Poles and the "Texas-sized" spurs near the South Gateway are a component of the public art by Artist, Steve Teeters

We appreciate your cooperation in restricting access to the Plaza.  Please share this information with your staff, guests and vendors.

Look for more updates soon regarding additional programming and maintenance in Rodeo Plaza!  For more information, call us @ 817-392-2502
