Beyond the headlines, we are tracking over 1.2 million square feet of active construction to bring you the most accurate timeline of Celina’s expansion. From major retail anchors like Lowe’s to boutique local favorites nearing completion, explore the detailed status of the businesses and infrastructure projects shaping our community’s future.
The wait is over for Celina’s newest home improvement anchor on Preston Road. The store held its official Grand Opening celebration on January 23rd. This 100,000+ square foot facility marks a major expansion of local retail options for the city’s growing resident base.
Beyond the major anchors, dozens of new retail, dining, and service businesses are moving through the development pipeline. Explore our tracker to see which local favorites and national brands are officially joining the Celina community in 2026.

We rely on primary data sources to ensure accuracy, including TDLR (Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation) filings, City of Celina permit records, and direct developer site plans. By tracking these “source of truth” documents, we can provide updates often weeks before a “Coming Soon” sign even appears on-site.
The Celina Watch database is a living document. We monitor new filings daily and perform a comprehensive site-wide update every week. This ensures that our subscribers regularly have the most current information on local groundbreakings and openings.
No. We are an independent community resource dedicated to transparent growth tracking. Being independent allows us to move faster with updates and provide a centralized “one-stop shop” for commercial data that is often spread across multiple different city and state departments.
In the world of Texas construction, timelines can shift due to weather, supply chains, or final city inspections. We only list a “Verified” date once it is confirmed by the business or a state filing; otherwise, we provide an estimated quarter (e.g., Q1 2026) based on current construction progress.
We only add projects to the map once there is a verifiable permit, TDLR filing, or official site plan on record. While rumors circulate quickly regarding major retailers like H-E-B or Costco, our mission is to provide “confirmed only” data so you can plan your commute and shopping around facts, not speculation.
