Preserving Hico’s places in history
Hico, with its historic town square and quaint, one-of-a-kind cafes and shops, is a community that has preserved its place in time. Just a 1 1/2-hour drive from DFW, Hico serves as the unofficial northern gateway to the Texas Hill Country.
Today, the area that once was simply a stop on the old Texas Central Railway, has become a vibrant destination where visitors and entrepreneurs alike stop to escape the frantic pace of urban life. And though Hico may seem like a place where time stands still, time hasn’t been as kind to some of its historic structures.
That’s where Hilaco comes in.
More than renovation,
preservation is our first priority
Some things are well worth preserving and none more so than Hico’s historic structures, some of which date back as far as the 1880’s. Our plan is to renovate these buildings to their original glory, being careful to preserve their unique character every step of the way. Interiors, will be tastefully updated while offering modern amenities that will appeal to tenants, customers, and visitors. This investment will not only be a significant step in preserving Hico’s past, but one that ensures a more vibrant future as well.
Great places to set up shop
Once completed, the Hilaco development will encompass six original buildings that will be totally restored along with a new retail corridor that can accommodate cafes, boutiques, and whatever else your dreams can envision.
