Cleburne Honor Monument

The Cleburne Honor Monument is a new construction project located at 1628 W. Henderson St. in Cleburne, Texas. The site covers an area of 7,000 square feet, with an estimated cost of $96,600. This investment equates to $14 per square foot, a figure that sits below the median for new construction filings in Johnson County. The project is registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) under the name BRW Architects, who serve as the design firm of record.

The scope of work describes an honor memorial monument featuring a precast concrete cover and a historic steel artifact mounted on a pedestal. The design includes an outdoor shade structure with seating and a decomposed granite pathway connecting the monument to the existing parking area. The City of Cleburne is the owner and developer of record for this public project, which utilizes public funds. George A Patterson is listed as the registered accessibility specialist for the filing.

Project Status and Timeline

Registration with TDLR occurred in February 2026, with a scheduled construction start in March 2026. The target completion date listed on the filing was August 2026. The scheduled build window for this project is 131 days, which is shorter than the county median of 222 days for similar new construction filings. However, no plan review or inspection has been recorded since registration, so whether the project proceeded as scheduled is not confirmed in the public record.

Context from TDLR filings indicates that this project's cost is in the bottom quarter compared to the 623 new construction projects registered in Johnson County. The median estimated cost for those filings is $800,000, while the median size is 7,147 square feet. The City of Cleburne has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $16,908,000, including the Hulen Park and Lakeshore Park developments. BRW Architects has six other registered projects in Texas, with a combined value of $39,882,150, including work in Killeen and McAllen.

Local social media activity, such as a Facebook post by a user referencing the Cleburne Honor Monument Phase One, suggests community interest in the development. These third-party mentions describe the monument as under construction, but such posts are not part of the official TDLR record. For context, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates the population of ZIP code 76033 at approximately 28,246 residents, with a median household income of $69,870.
