I received the following letter from LaCenterra in Cinco Ranch:
“We’re currently working on an in-depth market research project that will help us answer the question, “What is best for LaCenterra’s Phase II?” More importantly, it will help us determine what residents want and what the greater Katy area needs.
Please let us know what you think by taking our survey. Your input will help guide us in the pursuit of additional retail, restaurant and entertainment components for Phase II. It will also give us hard data to present to national retailers to let them know that Katy is ready to support an entrance into the market.”

Above art created by Emily Freeman–”Next Spring”.
LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch, in partnership with Katy Visual and Performing Arts Center (KVPAC), welcomes Making A Mark®, the Texas Children’s Cancer Center and Hematology Service’s touring art exhibition presented by The Periwinkle Foundation.
The extraordinary display features the works of young artists whose lives have been touched by cancer and blood disorders. It provides a unique focus on their personal issues.
The exhibit will open to the public Wednesday, April 14 at 5:30 p.m. in Ste. C 140 of LaCenterra (between Simply Cinco and Panera Bread) and run through April 28 before moving to KVPAC gallery for an additional two-week showing.
Making A Mark encourages all patients and their siblings to participate in sharing their feelings through applied art or creative writing. Often deep-rooted feelings and fears are given a positive outlet.
Every participant is a winner because so much has been gained in the process, and all submissions for the show are exhibited at the opening each September at Texas Children’s Hospital and then a selection of artwork travels to various locations throughout the year.
Guest are invited to fill out a “Postcard from the Road” that will be sent directly to the artist or Read the rest of this entry »

Cinco Ranch was the nation’s number one master-planned community (MPC) for new-home sales in 2009, according to a report by RCLCO, an independent real estate advisory firm.
With 887 new-home sales in 2009, Cinco Ranch was one of only two Houston MPCs on RCLCO’s top 10 list to report a sales increase from the previous year.
Sales increased 14% last year in the 7,600-acre community, located at Grand Parkway and Cinco Ranch Blvd. in Katy. The increase helped Cinco Ranch grab the top spot in the study, after ranking number two in 2008 behind a Las Vegas development.
The only other Houston area community with a sales increase for 2009 was Telfair in Sugar Land, also by Newland Communities. With 450 new-home sales in 2009, Telfair ranked fourth nationally in the RCLCO study.
“These results are outstanding for us,” said Bob McLeod, Chairman and CEO of Newland Read the rest of this entry »
