Living in Tomball
At the heart of the vision is a commitment to preserving the site’s history while opening the door to new community experiences. The main sanctuary and original 1949 chapel will be thoughtfully transformed into versatile spaces for gatherings, performances, professional events, and celebrations. Beyond these historic landmarks, the project also envisions incorporating spaces for art and creativity, ensuring that Tomball Legacy Square becomes a place where Tomball’s heritage and creative spirit come together.
Tomball Legacy Square will be more than just a destination — it will be a hub of community, art, culture, and connection that strengthens the heart of Tomball for years to come.
