Regarding restaurants, there are already quite a few and one closed recently. Currently, there are the following in Brownwood:

McAlister's
TooJays
Five Guys
City Fire
Ricciardi's
Cody's
Gator's
World of Beer
Scooples
Dunkin' Donuts

It is not clear that there is a demand for anymore restaurants at the current time.

It would be great to add a water feature of some sort. There is a lake in the middle and a pool with fountains in the north. Both the north and middle have little streams as well. It would be nice to add something in the south (maybe building upon the popularity of Larry).

Of course, we need more retail. Personally, we would love to see more restaurants like a Panera Bread (just like the other two squares), a Bonefish Grill and maybe a Carabbas.

While 44 is gradually showing signs of life, it would be great to have more shopping to eliminate some of the traveling all of us southerners have to do. My wife wants a Michaels (or Joanns or Hobby Lobby or AC Moore). A Trader Joe's and a Costco would be nice.

What would you like to see or add?
