Downtown Grapevine is centered on the Historic Main Street district, with preserved commercial buildings, shops, galleries and performance venues. The city identifies a commercial historic district along Main Street and a separate Original Town historic district east of it.

Grapevine Main and Main Street Station form a southern gateway to downtown. TEXRail connects the station with Fort Worth and DFW Airport, while the Grapevine Vintage Railroad is a separate visitor experience. The distinction between regional transit and an excursion train is useful when planning everyday access.

### Places to know

**Historic Main Street.** The downtown commercial corridor of preserved buildings and local destinations.

**Grapevine Main and Peace Plaza.** A mixed-use gateway and public-space area by the rail station.

**Main Street Station.** A TEXRail stop serving downtown, separate from vintage-railroad excursion programming.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Check the city’s commercial or Original Town designation and design guidelines before planning work on an older property.
- Use Trinity Metro’s current timetable for a transport trip and the Vintage Railroad’s separate schedule for an excursion; they are different services.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
