Boys and Girls Club in Lewisville, TX

The Boys and Girls Club of Greater Tarrant County completed a $2,476,307 renovation of its Lewisville facility, converting an existing fire station building into an after-school program with supportive facilities. The project, registered with TDLR in February 2026, involved altering 6,000 sq ft of space without adding new square footage. Construction concluded with a final TDLR accessibility inspection passed in August 2026.

Located at 195 W Corporate Drive in Lewisville, Denton County, the work focused on adapting the structure for youth activities. A key component of the scope was the conversion of unconditioned garage space into a conditioned sports court. This alteration allows the club to utilize the full footprint of the building for its programs, replacing the previous industrial or storage use of the garage area with a functional recreational space.

Merriman Anderson Architects served as the design firm of record for this project. The architectural team is responsible for the structural and accessibility modifications required to meet state standards. The registered accessibility specialist for the filing is Bonita L Anderson. The firm’s involvement in this specific renovation highlights a focus on adaptive reuse, transforming a former fire station into a community resource for local residents.

The estimated cost of $2,476,307 translates to $413 per square foot. This figure is above the median cost per square foot for renovation and alteration projects in Denton County, which stands at $80. The total project cost is also in the top quarter of similar filings in the county, where the median estimated cost is $235,000. The scheduled build window of 130 days is longer than the county median of 92 days for comparable work, reflecting the complexity of converting existing infrastructure into a specialized youth facility.

The project is privately funded on private land for private use. The TDLR record indicates that plan review was completed in March 2026, with construction starting in the same month. The final inspection was passed in August 2026, marking the completion of the physical construction phase. This status confirms that the building has met the required accessibility standards for its new intended use as an after-school program.
