I want to share a bit of intel on the city my wife and I now call home: Princeton, Texas, is beginning to show some signs of municipal maturity.<\/p>\n

It is growing up before our eyes.<\/p>\n

How do I know that? I am seeing “Open” signs on windows of newly built businesses along U.S. Highway 380. A donut shop chain store is opening. So is a pizza joint a bit west on the highway. The city recently welcomed a new coffee shop. A major chain motor fuel station\/store is under construction at the U.S. 380-Monte Carlo Boulevard intersection. Strip malls are being completed.<\/p>\n

Roadwork is proceeding along several thoroughfares, with more work planned along U.S. 380.<\/p>\n

Is this the beginning of the final phase of Princeton’s upbringing? Hardly. I hear talk of a new major grocery store on the way. We still need a movie theater and more eateries, allowing us to stay closer to home.<\/p>\n

The maturation will take time. I can wait.<\/p>\n
